For quite some time I'm struggling to enable Windows sounds on my VirtualBox win95 machine without success, host OS is ubuntu 18.04. So far I've tried the following things:
- SoundBlaster 16 with all host options (Pulse, ALSA, OSS) - no success
- AC97, automatic driver installation gets triggered when the VM boots after altering the setting, but it doesn't help
- Host-based installation of the WIN95 AC97 Realtek driver (got it from the win98 SE topic) through a mounted .iso file - also nothing
Long story short - I decided to try Win95 for my gaming purposes, because I had similar troubles previously with Win98 SE (at least, I got the windows sounds over there, but nothing in-game, except the intro. And if someone wonders, I did it per the instruction - AC97 drivers for Win 95, installed through the device manager via the .inf file - the game doesn't sing
Any ideas if I have missed something?
Many thanks for your attention!
