I managed to get kvm to play over pulseaudio and it doing a real much better job than alsa oss and sdl.
apt-get source kvm Change to the debian/patches folder Edit: reenable_audio_drivers.patch --- kvm-82+dfsg/configure.orig 2009-01-09 12:32:42.294604874 -0600 +++ kvm-82+dfsg/configure 2009-01-09 12:33:49.098787948 -0600 @@ -146,6 +146,8 @@ fi --extra-ldflags="-L $PWD/../libkvm $qemu_ldflags" \ --kerneldir="$libkvm_kerneldir" \ --prefix="$prefix" \ + --audio-drv-list="pa oss alsa sdl" \ + --audio-card-list="ac97 adlib cs4231a gus" \ ${cross_prefix:+"--cross-prefix=$cross_prefix"} \ ${cross_prefix:+"--cpu=$arch"} "${qemu_op...@]}" ) || usage Put the pa before oss alsa sdl.

Simply rebuild the package. I have done this with pbuilder. Using pdebuild --use-pdebuild-internal Install new package (Mine is amd64) with dpkg -i kvm_83+dfsg- 0ubuntu1_amd64.deb After this your kvm is doing fine with pulse.
