Note: The old vars will continue to work, and possibly it makes sense to
keep at least QEMU_AUDIO_DRV (which I think is the only one used by
libvirt) working a bit longer than the minimal deprecation period.

Also: This is a first step only, there is more in the pipeline, where
you can assign sound cards to backends (simliar to -netdev). You might
want wait for this to land before start working on libvirt support, or
at least keep in bind this is coming when designing things.

cheers,
  Gerd
