Hi Manos,

I don't think the virtio_snd_set_config function is necessary. The
virtio sound device specification in chapter 5.14.4 states that all
fields in the configuration space are driver-read-only. I wrote a patch
to remove the virtio_snd_set_config function. The patch can be found at
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2024-09/msg00003.html.

With best regards,
Volker
