cannot hear any voices in elder scrolls Skyrim

Post by hokuspokus »

Hello all

I'm using Linuxmint xfce 64bit. wine version 1.9.9, winetricks.
I`m able to star Skyrim and can hear music and sound, but no voices

I'm looking since days for a solution , seems that i have to on switch to alsa, in the winetricks program.
turn on "sound=alsa, , set sound driver to alsa."

but everytime i restart winetricks the line, sound=alsa, , seems to be unchecked/marked.
not active. :x


By the way i also have tried to use the playonlinux solution, but didint get far with it, because some dowloads not working or take forever.

Do you have PulseAudio installed? What is listed as your sound driver in winecfg?

Problem is solved I tried again "playonlinux" which worked flawlessly this time.
Voices , music is all functioning but soundquality was bad.

I found a "solouting for fixing crackeling sound" , found at youtube.
This helped to improve soundquality.

so thanks, problem is solved :mrgreen:
