Gens included in current 2.12b ebuild will not use SDL. When starting from a terminal window and loading a ROM, I see this error: $ SDL: Audio timeout - buggy audio driver? (disabled) audio: Bad file descriptor The ROM loads without audio Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use existing 2.12b ebuild from portage: "emerge gens" (currently 2.12b) 2. Start gens from command-line with a user in the 'games' group: gens 2. Use default settings -- meaning don't configure gamepad, etc. 3. Load a ROM Actual Results: $ SDL: Audio timeout - buggy audio driver? (disabled) audio: Bad file descriptor The ROM loads with no audio Expected Results: * No warning messages about SDL missing or buggy as described in "Actual Results" section. * ROM loads and sound is heard. * First unemerged libsdl and sdl-mixer to be sure it wasn't an SDL issue. Also tried another game that uses SDL and it works fine. * Attaching a compressed log containing an strace (gens-sdl-strace.log.gz) starting gens, then opening a ROM, run til sound should be heard, close the ROM, and finally exiting the program.

Created attachment 55951 [details] Updated ebuild that uses gens-rc3.5-opengl.tar.gz I modified the ebuild because the current 2.12b ebuild does not use the OpenGL version yet.
attach /home/andrye/.gens/gens.cfg as text/plain please.

The strace output is a bit useless, since the program creates threads with the clone() syscall, and the stracelog only follows the mainthread.
I can't reproduce this. I guess reopen if you have more information and it's still a problem.
