Are you using ALSA?

Could be that something is hogging the device when teewars wants to hogg it. This has been addressed in 0.4.0

Re: Audio problem on ubuntu 7.10

What other applications are you running while playing?

I don't really know, Settings -> sound, maybe. I can't remember about Ubuntu since I am running Linux Mint 4.0 as my main distro, which is just a forked Ubuntu. Sounds working flawlessly here. yikes

Re: Audio problem on ubuntu 7.10

Yeah, I prefer Mint over Ubuntu, feels just more polished.

Try turning off the other apps, and test again.

Re: Audio problem on ubuntu 7.10

TeeWars have problems with sound on the Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon .

There's 2 reasons:
1) Linux Ubuntu is not made for listening to sounds.
2) Source errorZ .

Core2Quad QX9650 12MB 4x3,00GHz - Razer Lachesis - Corsair 8 GB XMS2 DDRII PC6400 RAM DualChannel - Nvidia GeForce 9800GX2 1GB PCI-E - Windows Vista Ultimate EN 64-bit

Re: Audio problem on ubuntu 7.10

The problem is most likely related to hardware/driver afterall. I see no other reason why it works for others and for others it doesn't, even the software is excactly the same, only hardware/driver changes. The main reason for the problems might be the way teewars handles the sound.

Re: Audio problem on ubuntu 7.10

"Linux Ubuntu is not made for listening to sounds." Eh? yikes
I don't know if this will help, but I use a sound blaster audigy, so I just unmuted some things in alsamixer and enabled it this is whatc I do:

niko@home:~$ asoundconf list
Names of available sound cards:
Audigy
Bt878
niko@home:~$

So, I get a list of my cards, to set my audigy as default I'd do:

niko@home:~$ asoundconf set-default-card Audigy
niko@home:~$

You might want to unmute it in alsamixer if required:

niko@home:~$ alsamixer

Best,
nikoPSK

No, that is not me; it's just a figment of your imagination.
