After some investigation, I found that we shoud add media-plugins/gst-plugins-pulse as a dependence on pulseaudio-based systems to enable sound support. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Globally disable the USE flag alsa except necessary ones to make pulseaudio|pipewire and legacy applications work as expected. 2. Do not install media-plugins/gst-plugins-pulse. 3. Configure a kvm VM with spice audio backend enabled, connect to it using spicy. Actual Results: spicy audio support works.
