Yes, that's to be expected. Newer Linux guests need HD Audio instead of AC'97.

One additional note: We are aware that the current selection of the guest OS type needs to be improved. At the moment it's only possible to select Linux / Ubuntu. While older Ubuntu distributions work better with AC'97 audio, recent Ubuntu distributions require HDA. Therefore it's currently up to the user to select the proper audio device _after_ the VM is created. This will be improved in the future.

Setting the Audio controler to "INTEL HD Audio" solve the problem !
