The above link is specific to Wine and highlights Wine misusing the ALSA
API, and ALSA therefore ignoring what Wine is trying to do. Sounds like
the Wine guys have fixed it.

For VirtualBox I am on 2.1.4 and I have it set to use PulseAudio. When I
boot the VM the application appears in pavucontrol as you would expect,
so it's clearly using Pulse, and I do get audio.

And yet when I boot the VM, Amarok -> xine -> PulseAudio stops working.
Yes, I am sure Amarok is using PulseAudio and not ALSA. So I think
VirtualBox is trying to do something that PulseAudio does not like; now
we just have to work out whether VirtualBox or PulseAudio is the
problem.
