Hello, I've tried playing several games games; Rise of Legends, Path of Exile, and Heroes of the Storm. Both exhibit the same issue, though Rise of Legends doesn't play music, while Path of Exile and HotS plays no sound whatsoever.

I use playonlinux for convenience, when I launch either games they both spit out this error message

Code:
ALSA lib /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.1.2/work/alsa-lib-1.1.2/src/conf.c:3366:(snd_config_hooks_call) Cannot open shared library libasound_module_conf_pulse.so

I also use pulseaudio if that helps.

I'm not really sure what to do here, the games run perfectly fine otherwise. If anything else is needed to debug further, let me know :)

edit; the plot thickens, this error actually happens to native steam when someone sends me a message.

apparently I didn't have an .asoundrc so I added one which removed the

error, but other two still exist. Though this has caused things like youtube and programs that don't let you choose sound device to not play sound either.

First confirm, that you have 32bit ABI enabled on alsa-lib, alsa-plugins, pulseaudio and openal. Do you use pulseaudio, or just alsa?

Being new to gentoo, I don't think so if I had to explicitly enable 32bit via a useflag for them. Sorry for the delay, I've managed to actually completely ruin my audio stack, it recognizes all my sound devices(both alsa and pulse) but doesn't play to any of them, and does not record as far as I can tell.

I use pulse.

You can also enable 32bit ABI system-wide, it'll save you from messing with every package. Add this line to your /etc/portage/make.conf
Code:
ABI_X86="64 32"

After that run emerge -uD --newuse world and you are set. It'll use more disk space and compile times are a bit longer, but also takes care of many problems with steam and games.

Maybe a permission problem, or volume is set to 0 in mixer? Please check, that you have done your configuration per the wiki.

If it still doesn't work, and search in Multimedia subforum doesn't help, you might get more help with general audio issues posting there.

After much compiling... I got the 32bit abi on all my programs. I ran my games once more and in fact no errors this time around. But I still don't get music in Rise of Legends, and no sound in Path of Exile, but HotS has full sound but a bit of crackle, probably too many audio channels.

I fixed my audio stack too so that's good ^^

edit; PoE and HotS work now. Rise of Legends still has no music nor voiceover playback, both of which are .wmas, I tried adding wmp10 via playonlinux's components, but it didn't fix it. Hmm

Carefully working with wineprefixes and dlls makes rise of legends work :)

basically just dxdx9, msxml3, msxml4, msfc42, and wmp10.
