+no sound in spice when VNC enabled
+
+Running Fedora32 with virt-manager → libvirt → qemu  I noticed that I got no sound in my spice client. The VM is configured with a SPICE-server and a QXL display, and in addition a VNC display.
+
+Apparently when I remove the VNC display, then the sound is routed just fine to the spice client: I can hear it, and `G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all remote-viewer --spice-debug  spice://localhost:5900` mentions SpicePlaybackChannel and SpiceRecordChannel. With the VNC server configured, such messages are missing, and I cannot hear the sound (which is sent by the guest OS to the virtual hardware).
+
+What is in the libvirt logs (/var/log/libvirt/qemu/${guest}.log) ?
+
+If VNC is enabled, then libvirt sets QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none unless  /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf is set to allow output to host audio.
+
+Clearly this doesn't do the right thing when SPICE is present at the same time as VNC, but that's libvirt's fault rather than QEMU.
+
+So if this is libvirt's fault, can we close this ticket here? Has anybody already reported this to in the libvirt bug tracker?

+[Expired for QEMU because there has been no activity for 60 days.]
