Wow it works, very interesting. I have no idea what I’m doing in that screen reader so I need to google and do some light reading but the installation was very easy. On Jun 18, 2014, at 11:04 AM, David Mehler <dave.mehler@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi,
If audio works you'll know it because you'll hear a drum like sound, at least in 12.04 through 14.04 desktop versions. After you hear this go in to your vm and do a alt plus windows key plus s you'll get speech. You'll be on the dialog that asks you if you want to try Ubuntu or Install it.

So assuming audio works, what's the procedure to boot Ubuntu with speech?

Hello,
I was having an audio problem with my Linux* virtual machines. They had worked previously, but after upgrading to workstation9 at least I am assuming that's when they broke, no audio in existing or new Linux virtual machines. This included Arch, and Ubuntu, for sure. So I googled and found this link:
I checked my .vmx files for each of the effected virtual machines and didn't find a sound.virtualDev entry, even though in the graphical configuration editor, (settings), I sound a sound card installed in the vm, connected at vm startup and set to the host sound card. So going on the article I added in the es1371 sound.virtualDev entry, no good. I then changed the config to:
sound.virtualDev = "hdaudio"
restarted the vm and it worked great! If you find a vm whose audio isn't working give this a try.
