I have been using Android Studio using software emulation as my then processor didn't support VT-x. Having now upgraded, the emulator doesn't boot and I get high CPU usage and the following message when loading from the AVD manager:
Hax is enabled
Hax ram_size 0x40000000
HAX is working and emulator runs in fast virt mode.
audio: Failed to create voice `goldfish_audio_in'
qemu-system-i386.exe: warning: opening audio input failed
emulator: Listening for console connections on port: 5554
emulator: Serial number of this emulator (for ADB): emulator-5554
Having seen High CPU usage with Android emulator (qemu-system-i386.exe) I've changed the config file to hw.AudioInput=no but the problem remains.
I even uninstalled the Microsoft generic audio drivers and installed the ones for my motherboard. No change.
Everything still works fine with a software emulator but the extra speed I've seen on another machine makes getting this to work worth it.
Android Studio Version 2.2.3 HAXM 6.0.5
Any ideas from anyone?
