Hello,

I installed an OSINT Kali version from TraceLab last year in vmware workstation. Everything worked fine, but since I have been installed the new update & upgrade, the sound is sizzling, something like my speakers were broken.
My host machine is on W11.
I tried few solutions from Internet that I found about the pulsaudio, even disable hyperV on W11. I tried to delete and reinstall the sound card from vmware but nothing worked.
So then, I decided to go for a new installation of the VM OSINT from VM files installer. It worked till I updated the distribution, after that I faced the same issue. So I went for the original distribution of Kali, I downloaded the file for vmware, it was the same issue after the update. After that, I tried a new installation of original kali linux from the .iso file, but the result was the same. I tried the same with Kali Purple, the issue was the same.

I spend like 3 days to try to solve this problem but I can't.

All the new installations were made with the last version of kali 6.1.0-kali7-amd64.
I didn't try i386 versions.
Maybe I should try with VirtualBox, maybe it is a vmware issue.

Did someone has the same problem ?

Thank you for your help.
