Frugal F96_3: no audio in Wine (Solved)

Post by mow9902 »

I'm using a Frugal install of F96_CE v3 and all looking good.

Per instructions in https://www.forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=6929 I am using the wine appimage "wine-staging-linux-x86-5.11-PlayonLinux-x86_64.AppImage" downloaded from https://github.com/ferion11/Wine_Appimage/releases

The windows apps I want seem to work fine BUT - I cannot get any audio. In the wine config we have the following:

winecfg_pulse.png
winecfg_pulse.png (42.31 KiB) Viewed 615 times

However, I cannot get any sound when I press the 'test' button, or within the respective app.

Has anyone using F96_CE got audio working with their wine install?

Check your source/output & configuration settings in pulseaudio settings, whatever it is called. If one of these is not set correctly, nothing will happen audio-wise. If you arent running pulseaudio, then select another output.

Pulseaudio is very useful but you need to check the obvious. For instance, I sometimes need to set the audio out to the actual browser to get sound.

@mow9902

In some systems, the pulseaudio output device will default to Built-in Audio-Analog Stereo.

Maybe you could try the following:

Wine configuration -> Defaults -> Output device -> Built-in Audio-Analog Stereo

Nobody is stupid in this forum. Its just where we are on the learning curve at a point in time. And for every person who asks a question on the forum, many others unseen get a bit of information they can use now or later. I get find stuff almost everyday that i might put to use in the future. Tha'ts the benefit of this kind of forum.
