Description Jared B. 2013-03-24 01:19:52 UTC
I installed games-arcade/dynamitejack-1.0.23 with no problems, and it loads and runs fine, but I get no sound.  Haven't had any luck trying to troubleshoot the cause.  It seems this is a fairly comment problem on 64-bit systems, with two alternative suggestions to fix:

http://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/1/846938350734653709/
http://steamcommunity.com/app/202730/discussions/0/864956554752814594/

The first isn't really applicable to Linux as I'm limited to whatever the emul-linux-x86-soundlibs package provides, and in this case it *does* seem to already provide the ALSA plugins, or at least some subset of them.

The second, unfortunately, didn't help either.  But, the last step, involving editing /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/51-pulseaudio-probe.conf, didn't match up for me - I have nothing under that alsa.conf.d directory except for a README that, sadly, wasn't all that helpful.

I'm stuck at this point.  Any ideas?  emerge --info pasted below.  Aside from that, I guess the main things worth mentioning are that I'm running amd64 with ALSA and with *no* pulse audio.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Julian Ospald 2013-03-25 18:56:54 UTC
can't reproduce
Comment 2 Jared B. 2013-03-25 19:24:50 UTC
do you have pulse audio installed?  I think that may play a part.

Otherwise, what can I do to help troubleshoot?  I haven't had any luck with the standard basic troubleshooting I do (checking dependencies, checking strace output for any obvious failures, etc.), and I'm not really familiar with the more thorough debugging utilities like gdb.
Comment 3 Julian Ospald 2013-03-25 19:40:16 UTC
(In reply to comment #2)
> do you have pulse audio installed?

the amd64 bit media-sound/pulseaudio? no
the 32bit library? yes, it's installed by app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-soundlibs
Comment 4 Jared B. 2013-03-27 00:19:32 UTC
ok, so again, what can I do to help troubleshoot?
Comment 5 Julian Ospald 2013-03-27 15:13:04 UTC
maybe it's even a card thing, because of that sick libIrrKlang.so lib

maybe run:
LD_DEBUG="libs" dynamitejack
Comment 6 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2018-02-28 14:59:19 UTC
ebuild was completely redone and now uses native libs (also pulseaudio), this is probably obsolete now then
