Virtualbox 6.0 sound issues

Post by StuardBr »

Hello!!

I was using VirtualBox 5.2.18 with an Ubuntu 18.04 guest without any problems, so, today i updated to the 5.2.28 and started to suffer issues in the audio. So, i searched and founded that this wasn't the newest version and updated again to the 6.0.6 and the problem persist. I can try to rollback to the 5.2.18 but first I want to know if there is something i can do to keep this version and solve this problems.

Sometimes the problem happen in 5 minutes of continuous playing, sometimes after 15 minutes, sometimes after 3 minutes...

Host: Dell Optiplex 9020 - Intel Core i7 4790 @3,6 GHz - 16 Gb RAM

Guest: Ubuntu 18.04 - 2 CPU - 8 GB RAM
PAE/NX Enabled
3D Enabled
128MB Video memory
Guest Additions installed

How to reproduce:
Audio streaming in spotify
Youtube
VLC playing audio

Tried some tests:
- Windows 10 1809 guest - Impossible to test, after some minutes of playing the VM crash (Log attached)
- Changed the audio driver in the VM settings to Intel HD Audio: Nothing
- Instaled Pulse Audio Manager in the Ubuntu and changed profile: Nothing
- Tried in Google Chrome (Version 74.0.3729.131), Mozilla Firefox (66.0.3) and VLC.
- If I open the audio settings window of the guest system while listening something, the audio just freeze.

PS: Logs bigger than 128 KiB, so, i put in the pastebin. I needed to change the U RL because i can't post U RLs yet, so sorry about this.
Ubuntu 18.04: pastebin /ficivH7A
Windows 10: pastebin /7C0khc3G

Even if you ZIP them?
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
Do NOT reply with the "QUOTE" button, please use the "POST REPLY", at the bottom of the form.
If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.
