At first sight, the use of an everywhere positive Wigner function as a probability density to perform stochastic simulations in quantum optics seems equivalent to the introduction of local hidden variables, thus preventing any violation of Bell inequalities. However, because of the difference between symmetrically and normally ordered operators, some trajectories in stochastic simulations can imply negative intensities, despite a positive mean. Hence, Bell inequalities do not apply. Here, we retrieve for a weakly squeezed Gaussian state the maximum violation on polarization states allowed by quantum mechanics, for the Clauser-Horn-Shimony-Holt (CHSH), as well as for the Clauser-Horn Bell inequalities. For the case of the Clauser-Horn Bell inequality, the influence of the quantum efficiency of the detectors is studied, and for both inequalities, the influence of the degree of squeezing is assessed, as well as the uncertainty range versus the number of trajectories used in the simulations.
