RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

lsusb output for USB speaker in host/guest

Description of problem:
I passthrough a USB speaker into RHEL6 guest, this device can be recognized by guest.
But I can't hear any sound from this speaker when playing an audio file. And qemu
reports "invalid descriptor data".

`lsusb -vvv` output in host/guest is attached.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Tested on host
# rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.6.32-257.el6.x86_64
# rpm -q qemu-kvm
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.266.el6.x86_64

with guest
# rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.6.32-188.el6.i686


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a RHEL6 guest with USB speaker passthroughed.
2. Choose "USB speaker" in "Sound Perferences" of guest.
3. Play a audio
4. Can't hear any sound.
  
Actual results:
This speaker can be found in guest, and the "Sound Perferences" in gnome can find this speaker, but cant hear sound from it.

Comment 2 Gerd Hoffmann 2012-03-29 07:50:07 UTC 
Probably a qemu-kvm bug, the "invalid descriptor data" messages hint that.
There is bug 807250, same issue for windows guest, could be the same root cause.

Comment 13 langfang 2012-04-18 06:59:23 UTC 
reporduce this issue with steps and  environment as follows:
host:
#uname -r 
2.6.32-262.el6.x86_64
#rpm -q qemu-kvm
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.272.el6.x86_64
guest:
2.6.32-272.el6.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a RHEL6 guest with USB speaker passthroughed.
2. Choose "USB speaker" in "Sound Perferences" of guest.
3. Play a audio
4. Can't hear any sound.

my CLI:/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -m 2G -smp 2 -cpu Penryn,+x2apic, -usbdevice tablet -drive file=/home/rhel6.3-64.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,werror=stop,rerror=stop,cache=none -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=ide0-0-0,bootindex=1 -uuid bc898f4c-93e8-48d7-b1f6-05eb4c611129 -rtc base=utc,clock=host,driftfix=slew -no-kvm-pit-reinjection -monitor stdio -name rhel5.7 -spice port=5830,disable-ticketing -vga qxl -netdev tap,sndbuf=0,id=hostnet0,vhost=on,script=/etc/qemu-ifup,downscript=no -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=virtio-net-pci0,bootindex=2 -usb -device usb-host,hostbus=3,hostaddr=6,id=hostdev1

results:

qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.272.el6.x86_64
guest:
2.6.32-277.el6.x86_64

(the step as same as the reproduce)
results: can be hear the video sound,the output
