[Bug 28880] New: No sound in some Directx games

Bug #: 28880 Summary: No sound in some Directx games Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: rave002@o2.pl Classification: Unclassified

I'm running openSuSE with recent (1.3.31) wine. Unfortunately even if Sound Test in winecfg is working, sound in DirectX/sdl for windows based games does not (GeneRally, RPG Maker 2003/2000-based games and others). I'm running PulseAudio if it matters. I'll attach generally log.

Yes, mainly those which uses DirctX for sound. Sound Test in winecfg works fine for me. Also I use winealsa.drv

--- Comment #6 from Andrew Eikum aeikum@codeweavers.com 2011-10-26 15:29:56 CDT --- Thanks for attaching your log. I don't see any dsound entries in your log file, which makes me think you're probably using native dsound. Have you tried running these games with a clean WINEPREFIX (I had to run winetricks vcrun2010 to get GeneRally to work)?

For example, running from the terminal, the following works for me:

$ WINEPREFIX=~/tmp_prefix winetricks vcrun2010 $ WINEPREFIX=~/tmp_prefix wine /path/to/GeneRally.exe

That may work, but I don't want it to be permanent solution since I configured wine to use same registry and "c drive" folder for two users (me and my Mom) so we can use same games without reinstalling them twice. I'll check it though

--- Comment #10 from Andrew Eikum aeikum@codeweavers.com 2011-10-27 09:25:57 CDT --- The sound in that game also works for me.

I'm still confused why the dsound TRACEs aren't showing up in your log file. When you run winecfg, do you have any overrides listed on the Libraries tab? What are they?

(In reply to comment #7)

It was just a quick test to see if you had settings in your wineprefix that were causing problems. You can get rid of ~/tmp_prefix if you want.

$ rm -rf ~/tmp_prefix $ WINEPREFIX=~/tmp_prefix winetricks vcrun2010 $ WINEPREFIX=~/tmp_prefix WINEDEBUG=+tid,+mmdevapi,+winmm,+midi,+dsound,+dmusic,+oss,+alsa,+coreaudio wine /path/to/GeneRally.exe &> log.txt

Let's find out why dsound isn't getting loaded. Can you attach another log with +relay,+loaddll,+module (in addition to the other channels)? This one will be a bit bigger than the others, so you might have to compress it before you can attach it.

Still no sound, but in LittleFighter2 which runs on same prefix sound is present (also it's present in winecfg's Sound Test, i.e. after clicking this button sound plays).

What happens if you unset your SDL_AUDIODRIVER environment variable:

$ export SDL_AUDIODRIVER= $ wine ......

You can play around with your various wineprefixes. I still fear that one with all the overrides, though...

Get a log, preferably in the clean prefix? (Don't need +relay,+loaddll,+module anymore.)

Yeah, you'd need a way to unset it only for Wine. I'm looking into a better solution, like a hack in Wine to unset that particular environment variable, but no promises. I've added this information to the Sound wiki page, anyway.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

About the SDL issue, I sent a patch which overrides this environment variable in Wine by default, so you won't have to work around it anymore. We'll see if it gets in on Monday. I've attached it here.

(In reply to comment #24)

Good idea. A simpler script would just be:

#!/bin/sh SDL_AUDIODRIVER= wine $@

I've added an example, made with Audacity how sound works in games. At least works, but is *very* choppy.
