So far I tried with HostDriver=OSS and GuestController=Intel HD Audio 
and ICH AC97, both produce similar results with sound stopping and cycling.
It seems to correlate with how busy the guest is. Activity triggers this.

Also, I don't see the PulseAudio option for HostDriver even though I am 
sure it's installed on this system.
