No sound on Linux/Fedora 18

Post by MajorKong »

There's no sound when I run the game. Sound works for everything else on my system (RhythmBox, Chrome, other steam games etc). The console spams "SDL Error: no input method could be opened".

I have these packages installed,

Code: Select all

[mark@localhost ~]$ yum list installed | grep alsa
alsa-firmware.noarch             1.0.25-2.fc18      @koji-override-0/$releasever
alsa-lib.i686                    1.0.26-2.fc18      @fedora                     
alsa-lib.x86_64                  1.0.26-2.fc18      @koji-override-0/$releasever
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.x86_64   1.0.26-2.fc18      @koji-override-0/$releasever
alsa-tools-firmware.x86_64       1.0.26.1-1.fc18    @koji-override-0/$releasever

Code: Select all

[mark@localhost ~]$ yum list installed | grep pulse
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.x86_64   1.0.26-2.fc18      @koji-override-0/$releasever

I have the same issue..

Steam/Linux/Fedora 18

When I first got the game a couple weeks ago, I was enjoying sound, then after updating steam last week, I lost all my sound.

You aren't the only one!

MajorKong, do you also use Steam?

All I can say right now is that I run the game with no issue on Kubuntu 12.04.2 (32-bits), with ALSA 1.0.25 and PulseAudio 1.1. :?
