Failed to initialize audio client

Post by ArcDesigner »

I don't quite understand what this means. I began to run the game with the console on and when I noticed the sound which by all means should be playing is not I checked there. The only thing I could find to explain why there was no sound was this "Failed to initialize audio client" followed by some hexadecimal code which is cut off and thus I can not print it out here. I am following this tutorial viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8447 which I found via the tutorials section of the wiki. I will hopefully attach a copy of my .love file below. I don't understand as the code shows no errors, it just doesn't want to load the audio for some reason. I even tried converting the audio from ogg to wav to see if that fixed it and nothing. Please help me fellow LOVEr your my only hope. :awesome:

This exists here in case you could not get the .love file to operate properly on your computer.

This file would not run on my computer and may require the other file I am attaching which will be the root folder.

I have actually fixed this myself. I found out that no LOVE made game would have audio. when I checked in on my sound configuration I noticed that it was setup as surround sound. Which of course for a laptop isn't going to work. This is why it reported that it couldn't send audio through the channel as I am assuming it doesn't exist.
