Sound Problem

[zeatchek]

I can get the game to run if i disable sound and music but if I try running the game with sounds/music enabled, i get this error in the terminal:

game: pcm_params.c:2351: sndrv_pcm_hw_params: Assertion `err >= 0' failed.
Saving backtrace to crash_backtrace_12832.log
Got SIGABRT (aborted)

I have the OpenAL packages installed. I started having audio problems with my computer ever since i installed pulse audio.

Any help would be much appreciated.

i uninstalled pulse audio, and I no longer get that error and I can now go into the game with everything enabled but there is still no sound

zeatchek,

Try putting this in ~/.openalrc:

(define devices '(native))

[zeatchek]

I added that in my openalrc file which replaced alsa, but theres still no sound.

Whats weird is that I click to enable sound and music in options then i click back and everytime i go back to options enable sound and enable music are unchecked.

right make sure when you're ingame that the volume levels aren't zero, and when next you quit the game cd to your regnum dir, and cd in to the live dir, once there type cp game.cfg ../

see the game.cfg in the regnum dir thinks your volume should be zero, while the game.cfg in live is the accurate (last known state) config, the root one just doesn't get updated

I had it working but then I had to reinstall my OS cuz of another problem.

Now i get this msg in terminal when doing aoss ./rolauncher

/regnum$ open /dev/[sound/]dsp: Invalid argument

I also can't go into window mode anymore.

my sound isn't working but the game runs great, all other sounds work just fine including serveral 3d games, however when I login to regnum everything is perfect and gorgeous, only......silent, no sounds whatsoever! game looks and plays awesome otherwise! any help would kick azz...




let windoze die, we can game on linux. wait what do we even need a proprietary os for?

stop reinstalling and fix your issues, you'll learn alot more and be a better tech at the end of the day! I know sometimes you have reinstall THIS IS NOT TRUE read up on linux it will blow your mind, redo your whole os recompile your kernel with the proper kernel modules read and you will be free

64 bit debian kernel, custom from there was using xfce switch to kde and walla stuck with artsd alsa modules work fine on everthing else though, I run warsow, urt4.1, americas army, world of warcrack, and serveral smaller titles all just fine, enemy territory is bugged for me now but sound works fine
