johnodon Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 UPDATE: Found a solution which is in line with the fix for OE/LE. I created /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf and put the same line in it that is used for OE/LE (options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1). Audio works as expected now. I know that "demonic" audio is an issue for Nvidia based cards and there are fixes for Windows and OE/LE guests. However, I don't see a fix for Linux distro guests (Ubuntu 16.04.1 in my case). I'm doing a vanilla install and have only done an apt-get update/upgrade and installed OpenPHT...but I have the "demonic" audio bug. The manual seems to only address Windows guests: http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/UnRAID_6/VM_Guest_Support#Enable_MSI_for_Interrupts_to_Fix_HDMI_Audio_Support Is there a Linux fix (non-OE/LE)?

I can use kodi fine in a windows vm. But in openelec/libraelec template sound breaks up alot. Using either card. I tried installing not using template and got the same result. Would you explain what to put in the snd-hda-intel.conf file please? Link to comment
amessydatum Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 UPDATE: Found a solution which is in line with the fix for OE/LE. I created /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf and put the same line in it that is used for OE/LE (options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1). Audio works as expected now. Fixed the problem for me, thanks a lot johnodon. I came by this thread very circuitously so I'm going to leave a few notes and summarize in hope of making this more googleable for others: This gets rid of the crackling, demonic audio issue on linux guests (in my case Ubuntu 16.04) with an Nvidia GPU passthrough using HDMI audio by enabling Message Signaled Interrupts on the card. Simply create the file (as root) `/etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf` and fill it with the following: options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 Reboot and the problem should be fixed. Link to comment

sipho102 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 I have been breaking my head about this issue issue and googled pretty much every thread in the ubuntu forums as I first thought it was a NVIDIA driver issue then went on to check alsa and pulseaudio settings to no avail. Helped me bump up my linux skills again but still was very frustrating only hearing stuttering and choppy audio the whole time. This simple switch fixed it. I am so thankful! Link to comment
GHunter Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Thanks for posting this fix. I just created Ubuntu and Linux Mint VM's yesterday and your fix solved my audio problems in both VM's. Link to comment

paperblankets Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Dumb question...do I Quote touch /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf vi /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf i options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 :wq In unraid or is this a setting in my guest vm? Thanks for the clarification! Link to comment
twhipps86 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Thank you so much!!! This solved my issue. Cheers! # My software versions and GPU. unRAID 6.6.7 Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS Virtual Machine GPU pass-through with 'ASUS GeForce GTX 1050 Ti PH-GTX1050TI-4G' # From within the Ubuntu Guest OS, I did the following: [1] Created the file. sudo touch /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf [2] Opened the file with nano text editor. sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf [3] Added the following line, saved, and closed. options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 [4] Rebooted and issue was fixed!!!
