Who needs Linux compatibility layer on OpenBSD when you got me

Today I was playing around with #OpenBSD hypervisor, VMM, and thought to leverage the sndio server feature to bring sound support to VMM as it has no hardware pass-through. After a couple of hours, I managed to put something together, and finally took it even a step further and could play Spotify free version via VMM Debian Google Chrome browser. That is a big deal for me because I can now play DRM content, of course in a hacky and unstable way, on OpenBSD without needing to compile any major browser on a Linux guest machine.

As stated, it is a super duper hacky solution that's duct tapped together. I aim to make it more functional and, if possible, find a way to play Netflix or Amazon prime without lag. SSH X11Forward is not suitable for such a thing. It's too slow. The video plays frame by frame.
