Apparently all is the same in qemu-kvm command lines, comparing c6 with c7
one, but I don't understand who drives instead the QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=XXX in
log file that is different between the two guests (none vs spice) and btw
also in f24 it is spice:

Understood!
Actually CentOS 6 guest graphics protocol was configured as "SPICE + VNC"
and this was the reason of "QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none"
Changing it to "SPICE", now I have "QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=spice" in guest
logfile
and also test speakers working inside guest.
Is this expected? I thought that the "+" would have given an aggregate of
functionalities, not a limitation... because initialy I wanted to test both
spice and vnc access...
If this is the case, probably a note or tool-tip could be useful for the
final user because it is not so immediate to correlate video with audio...
