Hi John, Yes, I have sound in the Linux, and in the use of KVM, and in the windows 10, but the only place I did not seem to have sound was in the VM of the Ubuntu I was trying to install. Maybe I had never gotten to the point where I could call up speech in the installer, but usually KVM takes you to a point in the installer where speech can be enabled. At this point, I don't know if the latest Ubuntu has trouble with some sound cards, or going through a hypervisor, or if I had not reached to a point where I can call up Orca. But when I toggle out of KVM, my working Ubuntu speaks again.

How did you install the VM if you did not have any sound from the get go? A sound card supported by Windows does not mean that it's supported by linux! do you get any sound at all in the VM? -- John Doe
