Asus Xonar Soundcard not Passing Through

[kenzo47]

I made a thread yesterday about having a problem with my Windows VM not installing but with some help from a few friendly people I got that fixed.

I've got everything working right now except my soundcard. I used archedraft's tutorial to get all of my USB3 ports working in my VM until my USB controller arrives: https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=36768.0

 

My XML File: http://pastebin.com/fd832yVH

syslinux.cfg: http://pastebin.com/hVe4gwsE

System devices: https://gyazo.com/27fe100fa9dc0b7969c9f27574f315c0

 

Whenever I add

<qemu:arg value='-device'/>

<qemu:arg value='vfio-pci,host=05:01.0,bus=root.1,addr=00.3'/>

 

to my XML file I get the following error:

 

System specs in my signature.

Soundcard: Asus Xonar Essence ST

 

If anyone had the same problem or knows of any workarounds or solutions pleace reply.

Thank you.

Your soundcard is in the same group as another device (04:00.0)and that's why you can't pass it through. You have enabled pcie_acs_override so the only option I see is to move the card around to see if you can get it in a group by itself or another device you are passing through to the VM.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll try moving it to a different slot right now.

Physically moving the soundcard to a different slot helped. After moving it the address changed to 05:00.0. I edited my XML file and added in:

<qemu:arg value='-device'/>

<qemu:arg value='vfio-pci,host=05:01.0,bus=root.1,addr=00.3'/>

 

This is for the people that are having the exact same issue because I can't find any specific situations on the forum.

 

So I finally got everything working. Thank you very much, Saarg. I enabled notifications on my thread so if anyone else has the same issue and you can't get it working just reply and I'll try to help you out.
