Please refer to

1. Set selinux to permissive
2. Add the following lines to /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
user='foobar'
group='foobar'
vnc_allow_host_audio = 1
This solved my KVM guest sound problem and I can use virt-manager too.
While you're setting selinux to "permissive", file a bug to request that
selinux allow this type of access. That way, in the future, you and
others will be able to do this without giving up other selinux
protections.
