Can I get sound under DOS?
Is it possible to get sound for DOS programs? If yes, what do I have to configure?

You'll need to make sure the audio controller configuration for the guest is set to "Soundblaster 16" and then you will need to track down some Soundblaster drivers for DOS.

SoundBlaster is the DOS standard, though you'll need to find a DOS driver for it (DOS dates from an era before bundled drivers, as floppy distribution media was too small. Besides which, SoundBlaster was a third party product).
