Prince of Persia - The Forgotten Sands sound problem.

Post by shreeniket987 »

Hello, I am trying to run prince of persia forgotten sands in wine(5.0.2) on ubuntu(20.04) in a 32-bit wine prefix, however whenever I launch the game, the visuals run fine, the gameplay is relatively smooth, but the sound cracks like crazy. Not just the in-game dialogue but music and other sound effects too, yet the during the cut scenes, the sound is fine... What could the problem be and how can I fix it? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

P.S. I have already installed dx9, dotnet45, and vc++ in the wine prefix.

Do you have this problem in Wine 6.10 as well?

Does the game work without the winetricks dx9, dotnet45 and vc++?
The game doesn't need .Net or vc++ and the DirectX9 version of Wine is sufficient.

Often there are clues what went wrong in the terminal output.
