there. I'm using Genymotion for test. I'm developing an android application. This application can make a sound. then I tried to test my android application. But,it would not make a sound.
My environment is Macbook. and Virtual box is 5.1. and VMDevice is Google Nexus 4 with API level 22. this would not make any sound even if i could change the volume of sound on genymotion.
And my virtual device setting is here.
In genymotion FAQ page, https://www.genymotion.com/help/desktop/faq/
What are the VirtualBox versions compatible with Genymotion?
- 5.1+ versions are not recommended as they lead to sound issues
- To run virtual devices, you must install Oracle VM VirtualBox 5.0.28.
- Genymotion might run with older versions but we cannot guarantee it.
so you should use version 5.0 or older to get sound working
It takes me a long time, finally got the answer.
Several versions of VirtualBox are known to cause issues in Genymotion. For Genymotion to run properly, make sure you have the right version of VirtualBox installed:
Mac OS X: 5.0.26 (a sound issue prevents version 5.0.28 to run properly)
Windows: 5.0.28
Linux: 5.0.28
In any case, do not use versions 5.1.x, as they are known to cause sound issues and in some cases prevent Genymotion to start.
