--- Comment #4 from AJSB ajsb@vfemail.net 2012-05-09 14:18:08 CDT --- OK, here it was i found out...
I uninstalled everything , "gitted" the most recent version of wine, compiled everything , installed everything from scratch including game but problem was still present...until my spiderman sense entered in action :D
Just like we have to edit manually the file ~/BFBC2/settings.ini to change option...
DxVersion=auto
to...
DxVersion=9
...I started to look around in that file and discovered that there was a setting that clearly seemed incorrect...somehow the GAME is UNABLE to figure out HOW MANY speakers i have in my rig and decides to write this in the settings.ini file...
SpeakerCount=0
...so, i simply edited it to read...
SpeakerCount=2
...and now everything is OK :D
The weird thing that didn't made me search for this possibility in 1st place was that game was playing music has it was loading...only when reaching main menu had the problem...i wonder why game is unable to figure out by itself the speaker configuration...
