Hello Michael,

You can find pertinent discussion on the virtio-comment list here:

https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-comment/202309/threads.html#00175

Fixing it is on our radar but it may prove non-trivial if it requires 
changing how the virtio-snd driver interacts with the kernel alsa API. 

Meanwhile AFAIK the qemu device conforms to the virtio spec in this case 
both with the previous version behavior and the current one. The change 
was made to compensate for the linux driver's behavior, not because it 
was previously incorrect.
