Hi.

There is no game audio.

Installing the game:

$ sh /media/SAMSUNGM3/install/gog/gog_jotun_2.2.0.4.sh
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing Jotun (GOG.com) 100%
Collecting info for this system...
Operating system: linux
CPU Arch: x86_64
trying mojosetup in bin/linux/x86_64
USING en_US

(process:5726): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Launching game and playing for a bit:

$ start.sh
Running Jotun
Set current directory to /home/user/go/jot/game
Found path: /home/user/go/jot/game/Jotun.x86_64
Mono path[0] = '/home/user/go/jot/game/Jotun_Data/Managed'
Mono path[1] = '/home/user/go/jot/game/Jotun_Data/Mono'
Mono config path = '/home/user/go/jot/game/Jotun_Data/Mono/etc'
displaymanager : xrandr version warning. 1.5

Using ALSA.

Any ideas?

From my experience (Debian Sid 64-bit, game installed via ./play.it), you need PulseAudio to get any sound from this game.

I have PulseAudio installed on my system, but its config files forbid it to run unless explicitly asked to. The game installed via ./play.it will automatically start PulseAudio before running the game, so I don’t have to think about it.

From my experience most people who mention they are using ALSA don't want to use Pulse. :p OP may be different though.

Thank you for the reply! It worked!

I checked the unity forums and FMOD forums but I missed this post since I didn't have a segfault launching the game.

Anyway, really appreciate it!

Nice trick, I’ll see if I can find a way to include it in the ./play.it script for Jotun without breaking PulseAudio compatibility.
