audio

Hi, I have an M3 with macOS Tahoe 25.6 on Parallels Desktop 26 for Mac Pro version 26.3.2 (57398). When I use the microphone, the audio is muffled via the speaker and also reported by others on voice chats. This has happened on multiple versions of both Parallels and macOS. I've tried...

Hello. I have two topics to ask for: 1. Every time that I play YouTube videos, it doesn't matter the amount of available RAM that I currently have; it creates the entire VM to lag and the YouTube audio cracks severely. 2. Another thing that I would like to ask is, why does the CPU fluctuate...

I'm currently using Parallels primarily to test screen reader support on Windows, and the screen reader gets pretty noisy sometimes. I can deal with that when I'm actively working on it, but it'll sometimes read out system notifications like battery alerts when I'm in a meeting or when my laptop...

Hello, I've downloaded video from Youtube and from Reddit. Youtube missing audio track. Reddit is perfectly fine. Am I the only one with this issue?

I've been using Parallels pro for almost a year now, and among all virtualization solutions, it's probably the gold standard. But what I absolutely can't understand is why Parallels has such horrendous audio performance. I'm running the ARM version of Windows 11 on the latest Parallels 20. After...

When using Mac Virtual Display with an Apple Vision Pro, Windows 11 audio does not output via the headset. I have not found any other application that has issues with Mac Virtual Display audio. All Mac settings below are configured in Control Center. Audio was tested using Windows 11 Settings -...

Hi! I have been using Windows 11 on Parallels 19 on a MacBook Pro M3 Max with no issues, but after updating my MacBook Pro to the new Sequoia 15.0.1 and updating Parallels to 20.0.1, suddenly there is no sound coming from the VM. When I try testing audio in Windows, the tests explicitly state...

I see in the sound settings for parallels that I can choose "airplay" as the default audio for Parallels, however, when I choose airplay as the audio output (sent to the only airplay device I have- a studio pair of HomePod Minis) the sound from parallels is 2-3 seconds delayed. Is there any way...

I already have the setting enabled to sync between the host and virtual machine volume, but this works only unidirectionally when it comes to muting and unmuting. Sp if I unmute Windows (the virtual machine), then I need it to somehow unmute the host machine as well. Is this possible?

Has anyone else been experiencing audio crackling and stuttering issues with macOS Guests in Parallels the past few months? I'm trying to narrow down if it's the host OS or Parallels that is causing it. The issue is reduced but not entirely eliminated if you change the audio sampling rate in the...

Windows 11 login chime sound very distorted and crackly on new M1 16" fully loaded - has anyone any ideas why and how to fix this? Many thanks in advance.

I am currently using Windows 11, I have a late 2020 M1 MacBook Air. I have reinstalled Parallels tool already, but I am still having this problem. I am using a Dualsense controller (connected by usb c), and I am attempting to play a game on steam. However, this issue happens whether I'm using...

Hello. I am using windows11 arm on a macbook air 2020 with macos 12.1. Everything works good so far besides 1 thing. I have really bad audio latence. It especially gets noticeable during audio editing. From the cpu it works great but when i play something it always plays with like 250 ms latency...

Hi everyone. I'm officially back to Team Parallels after having used VMware Fusion for years. The reason is that Parallels actually runs Windows 11 ARM on M1 machines, while VMware is stuck making excuses for why they can't do it. Years ago, like maybe around 2012 or something, I switched from...

When Parallels 17.0.1 (51482) is in the background, my audio gets really choppy. Specifically if I'm on a teams call, with my USB headset connected to the guest VM I have a hard time with the conversation. The host machine is running MacOS 11.5.2 This seemed to start around the time I...

I've been trying to setup the P2 headphone input on Windows Setup > audio, but it don't apear as an option. On Mac, I can plug yje headphone and use, but not on Windows. Mac OS Big Sur 11.4 Windows 10 Parallels 16.5.0 (49183)

Hi, since renewing my subscription last week both Audio and Video downloading form youtube has stopped working, any ideas?

My macbook air has broken internal speakers so I use the headphone jack, which works fine, in Windows 10 it only has speakers as a choice, and the sound levels play change as if music was playing when there is audio playing, so that would work, and I'm getting replacements, but I want a...

I have a mid-2015 Macbook Pro running MacOS Big Sur (11.1) and Parallels 16 Pro Edition (16.1.2) with a Windows 10 Pro (20H2) VM which is docked (lid closed) to an Apple Thunderbolt Display via Thunderbolt 2 connection. All is well, computer sees and uses the monitor for display, audio, and...

Following the other posts in this forum I have working ubuntu and debian installations on M1 ARM mac but I get no audio output. Any suggestions on how to address this? Does this depend on updated parallels tools to support the virtual audio hardware?
