VMware with Karmic Koala and sound card

[gtmeloney]

I am running 64-bit (version 9.10) on a VMWare workstation. I am having an issue with my sound card.

This is the message that I get when I start the VM:

A device ID has been used that is out of range for your system. Sound will be disconnected

I am running Vista-64 as my host OS. I know it might be easy to blame this on Windows, but I also have an XP guest OS and sound works fine there, so it is definitely an Ubuntu related issue. Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks

I have a similar problem with any vervsion of Ubuntu and host OS 64-bit Windows 7. I think the problem could be related to the combination of 64-bit architecture and sound drivers. What motherboard and sound system are you using? I have ASUS P6X58D, which comes with Realtek audio on-board.

My XP guest OS works perfectly, except certain NetMeeting audio options will cause the sound to disconnect in the VM. I can restart the VM and all is well. The only thing common here is the VM and 64-bit environment.
