Unhappy Enemy territory no sound with alsa drivers


Hi forum,

Well this is my issue, after read alot of how to configured Unreal Tournament in my system this really rocks the video and graphics are so good. Now I was trying ET (Enemy Territory) on my slackware box, the problem is that there is not sound on this game, after read many sources I cannot do it works.

I have alsa drivers configured in my box so I ear that ET use nativily OSS drivers and I should use alsa oss emulation or something like that. When the game starts it send a message that ET found the sound card but nothing sound in my box.

So someone have an idea how to fix it.

Try this as root in console
Code:
echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0/oss
It worked for me. Also you can put it in your /etc/rc.d folder for init at bootup.

Thanks mdg,

If I remember well , I did it with another 2 extra lines, any way Im going to try just the line that you posted.

Any other idea, for example in Unreal Tournament, the matter was just to put a file specific file that in this moment i cannot remember, in my home directory somenthing like: sound=('alsa').

Thanks in advance guys.

I had to use this command to start it when I used to play:

artsdsp -v -m et


Note, if I did it as root I did not get sound, only if I did it as my user account.
