Hi All,

Am working with someone to remediate his XP environment to Windows 7.
The software ONLY runs on Windows so no choice there.  But there is a
Linux connection.

I am working with his old IT guy & as part of the remediation we have
put Ubuntu 14.04 (with KDE) as a host...running latest VirtualBox &
additional bundle both downloaded directly from website.  We are also
using zfs for the snap-shoting as well.

Pretty much everything is working as it should with a couple small
exceptions:
* Sound: Seems to play fine but he is complaining that it isn't loud
enough.  Sometimes after work they like to crank the tunes or a video or
something & while the volume is good, it was louder under Windows XP.
It is onboard sound & a custom build from MemEx & imagine fairly generic
drivers.

I haven't used VirtualBox that much so I am not sure if that is the
problem.  I am not 100% of the chipset on the soundcard without taking
the computer apart...unless anyone can suggest anything.  In Win 7 I
believe it shows as generic...so not much help there.  I did try to
update the drivers but only a minor change.

* Printer: He was mentioned that the printer didn't seem to print as
quickly from the Win 7 environment as it did before.  Now this could be
down to being connected via IP address & I think now that the USB issue
that was happening through VBox we might be able to connect it directly.

Surely VBox isn't affecting things THAT much?
