[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 403363] Re: OpenAL-based applications' sound is jerky

[MDxm]

I second this. Jaunty libopenal1:1.4.272-2 does not work unless I use
OSS drivers setting in /etc/openal/alsoft.conf

pulse will not work for this old package, because it didn't get pulseaudio support until version 1.8+
Installed the karmic package libopenal1:1.8.466-2 +same version of dev on Jaunty and changed /etc/openal/alsoft.conf
drivers=pulse
And now both Warzone2100:2.2.3 from playdeb.net and the Blender game engine produce sound with no problem what so ever.

Status in “openal-soft” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: libopenal1

In applications based on OpenAL, like FlightGear or OpenArena, sound is jerky.
Adding the following line in /etc/openal/alsoft.conf seems to fix the problem :

drivers = pulse

Found here : http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#OpenALApplications

Works in Karmic, not tested in Jaunty (but Jaunty's jerky sound in OpenAL seems to be worse)

my libopenal1 version : 1:1.8.466-2
