mmdevapi:MMDevEnum_Create OpenAL support not compiled in

[zuargo]

Hello

I am trying out a game called Dark Void.

It works, installation, and gameplay but the sound does not.

When I run it I get the following message:

err:mmdevapi:MMDevEnum_Create OpenAL support not compiled in, application will not find sound devices

WINE has been compiled with the parameters or flags (don't know which is the correct word):

./configure --prefix=/usr \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--with-x

as you see, was not compiled using the flag: --without-openal

The openal package is installed on the system. Perhaps is a problem with this package.

I am on Archlinux ¡686 and I am usin wine 1.1.44

Please help me

The openal package is installed on the system. Perhaps is a problem with this package.

Is the openal development package also installed?

I think is not...

Here the package information:

I was watching the openal web page and don't see any developer package:

what must I download?

OK, I requested support at the openal channel on freenode

They said me that I have installed all necessary files in order to enabling openal support on WINE:

Code: Select all

$ pacman -Ql openal
openal /usr/
openal /usr/bin/
openal /usr/bin/openal-info
openal /usr/include/
openal /usr/include/AL/
openal /usr/include/AL/al.h
openal /usr/include/AL/alc.h
openal /usr/include/AL/alext.h
openal /usr/include/AL/efx.h
openal /usr/lib/
openal /usr/lib/libopenal.so
openal /usr/lib/libopenal.so.1
openal /usr/lib/libopenal.so.1.12.854
openal /usr/lib/pkgconfig/
openal /usr/lib/pkgconfig/openal.pc

Also they said me I should build and installing WINE from the source after installing openal. The point is they believe the packager included a flag or parameter in the WINE building, that prevent to use openal on WINE (--without-openal). But as I say at the first post this is not so.

However I will try it.

I thought you were already building Wine yourself. Are you saying the openal not compiled in error is for a packaged version of Wine? Then yes, the problem is with the Wine package, and you need to contact the package maintainer. If the packager didn't have the necessary openal files installed, then Wine would be compiled without openal support.
