Sound problem

[rorio]

I have a very strange problem: I've been playing tremulous for ages and then suddenly the sound disappeared. I can't locate source of the problem. I use kubuntu and oss. The output in console is normal. It's quite mysterious...

Plizzz help me

[David]

What changed?
And can you give us a copy of the game output?

Everything is as it was.

This has happened to me and a few other players I know also.

AFAIK I either waited it out or restarted Tremulous.

[next_ghost]

Tremulous uses ALSA. Run alsamixer and make sure your PCM is not muted. Also if you've updated ALSA drivers package or kernel with built-in ALSA drivers lately, update you alsa library package.

[rorio]

PCM was muted.

Huge thanks
