The changes from 1.5 include: * Channel volumes are now ramped from source position changes and when starting playback, to help prevent pops and clicks * The AL_DOPPLER_FACTOR source property works * Implemented a new Solaris backend for playback * The openal-info example will now print EFX information * More EFX compliance fixes * Support for non-mmap ALSA capture * A new low-pass filter, based on the I3DL2 specification * The ALSOFT_CONF environment variable may be used to specify an additional configuration file * A completely new reverb effect implementation * Improved CPU use for the DirectSound backend Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: I installed this version through my local overlay and tested it with three games depending on openal without any problems. Copying over the existing 1.5.304 ebuild should be sufficient.
Reassigning to sound herd.
