Title:
  QEMU + SPICE + AUDIO = FAILURE

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello it's my first time doing this, since the major round of
  timer/block changes in August I have not been able to have audio
  working in any guest with the spice protocol.

  64 bit linux , AMD SVM, IOMMUv1  ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0

  Example command line:

  qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 -cdrom Sabayon_Linux_DAILY_x86_Xfce.iso
  -soundhw hda -vga qxl -spice port=5999,addr=0.0.0.0,disable-ticketing
  -enable-kvm -device virtio-serial-pci -device
  virtserialport,chardev=spicechannel0,name=com.redhat.spice.0 -chardev
  spicevmc,id=spicechannel0,name=vdagent

  Any time the guest tries to access the emulated hardware it will hang
  for a very long period of time and play no audio through spice. It
  doesn't seem to matter what guest (x86_64 or x86) I run (the above is
  just one example) and it also doesn't matter what sound hardware I
  choose to emulate or which command line method I use to specify it (ie
  -soundhw doesn't work and neither does -device) or whether a vdagent
  service has been configured correctly inside the guest or not.

  This issue does not happen with the 1.6.0 release.

  If you are unable to replicate this I will go to the trouble of
  getting the race message that happens in the guest but I am assuming
  at this point that my configuration is not exotic and it should be
  very easy to see the issue.
