It's VirtualBox's problem? Not my only?

I don't see any mention in the VirtualBox manual of direct support for audio input devices. Your microphone is connected to your host, not your VM, and I don't see any "mount" option for a host microphone.

Possibly you could get a USB soundcard to work, if that supports an audio input.

Perhaps RDP supports audio input devices - I don't know because I've never used RDP.

With a microphone it agree.

Why the sound from a system mixer is not captured?
Any sound!!! NOT the MICROPHONE

Please see my last reply. Just replace the word "microphone" with "mixer".

I PLAY a sound in Windows. (wav, mp3, ogg)
In native Windows a normal sound of capture.
I cannot CAPTURE a sound in VirtualBox.

I wish to write down a sound which plays already in Windows.
