kingit: GOG put wrong OpenAL32.dll into setup. They used x86 version of file instead of x64 version OpenAL32.dll (@GOG, yes, both x64 and x86 version are named OpenAL32.dll but files are not the same). 64bit GOG installer works for some only because they installed full OpenAL setup before, so game uses file from %SystemRoot%\System32\OpenAL32.dll , not the one from root of game installation folder. Either replace mentioned file in game folder with x64 version or install OpenAL.
(btw I do not own this game, friend with the same problem asked me for help so I helped him first..)
Thank you... This has been driving me crazy.
Good advice....

Installing OpenAL solved the issue for me, thaks @kingit for sharing this

Solved the issue for me too. It's appalling that GOG haven't fixed their setup in the year and a half since the solution was reported.

PraetorianWolfie: Can you check if re-installing the game (after having installed the new OpenAL) fixes the sound card detection issue?

Callerafa: WOW! It worked! You are a genius, thank you so much!!!

P.s.: first I installed OpenAL in my Windows folder System32, rebooted my PC and, after re-installing the game, I overwrote the OpenAL32.dll in its folder.
I just had the same issue and i followed your steps, but I stille have the problem, that it can't detect the sound card. Can anyone help?
