I sure do, forwarding this to the Xen devel list. Can this be added to
the official Git of Qemu for Xen 3.4?

This is a much better patch than my hard-coded version.

And setting alsa buffer_size to 16384 in the alsa sound driver

And it would be nice to load the present sound-driver rather than
the first in the list - now one has to edit the list order and compile
