Topic: [SOLUTION] No sound when other app using sound card (alsa)

I noticed that people often meet this problem. Here is solution

I had same problem before. So I started teeworlds from terminal and looked for error messages or something like that. Here is what I found:

[493b7144][snd]: device #0 name='/dev/dsp'
[493b7144][snd]: device #1 name='HDA Intel: ALC883 Analog (hw:0,0)'
[493b7144][snd]: device #2 name='HDA Intel: ALC883 Analog (hw:0,4)'
[493b7144][snd]: device #3 name='default'
[493b7144][snd]: device #4 name='dmix'

In ~/.teeworlds/settings.cfg option snd_device was set to -1. So I changed it to 3. After this edit sound works ok for me, even when another application uses sound card.

Hope this will be useful.

Re: [SOLUTION] No sound when other app using sound card (alsa)

Hello, teeworlds seems to work from scratch on Ubuntu when using Alsa.
If you use PulseAudio, though, if the soundcard is busy, sound won't work no matter what.
