No Audio, despite Audio test being successful

Post by Denton »

For some reason, every game I try to run with wine has no audio. however when I run winecfg and use the "Test Sound" button I hear the audio normally.

I am running Debian buster, running the audio with pulseaudio to a bluetooth headset.

Not sure what exactly fixed it, but after fixing a DirectX issue with another game with Winetricks (installing the directX dll) my audio issue was fixed. winetricks did ask me to switch to wine32 so might be related.

Fixed by installing directx for "another game"? Does that mean you have several games installed in the same wineprefix?

Winetricks might "complain" about certain packages working with a 32-bit prefix perhaps?
