[Bug 559705] [NEW] No sound in VMware Player with Virtual kernel

[David Clayton]

Public bug reported:

Installed new 10.04 64-bit beta 2 VM using VMware Player 3.1 (beta) and
sound works with default generic kernel.

Install Virtual kernel packages (as one is supposedly meant to do with
VM clients) and sound is no longer working - system lists no detected
sound device any longer.

There seems little point in having a kernel for virtual installs that
does not fully support *all* the virtual hardware.
