Subject: [gentoo-user] No sound in dosbox
Date: Sat, 23 May 2015 14:59:26 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150523185926.GA32492@waltdnes.org> (raw)

  This is not the particular game itself, it's dosbox.  I.e. when I
start up dosbox, it says...

[d531][waltdnes][~] dosbox
DOSBox version 0.74
Copyright 2002-2010 DOSBox Team, published under GNU GPL.
---
CONFIG:Loading primary settings from config file /home/waltdnes/.dosbox/dosbox-0.74.conf
MIXER:Can't open audio: No available audio device , running in nosound mode.
ALSA:Can't subscribe to MIDI port (65:0) nor (17:0)
MIDI:Opened device:oss

  It used to work before I re-installed Gentoo (32-bit ==> 64-bit).
Audio works in linux Youtube, mplayer, mpg123, etc.  It's just dosbox
that fails.  Google searching did not help.  I saw a few references to
checking for missing /dev/dsp and /dev/audio.  They are present on my
system.  Any ideas?
