No sound after playing N64 roms

Everything was working fine until I starting using N64 roms. Now that is the only emulator that has sound. Thoughts on a what could be wrong?

@vdizzle12 That's a an old ES release - please provide the rest of the details about your system as asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

Hi
I had the same problem with N64.
Assuming you are using the 3.5mm jack for sound output;
Find /opt/retropie/configs/n64/mupen64plus.cfg
and the line OUTPUT_PORT = 1
In my case I wanted sound from the 3.5mm jack, so changed this to a 0. It should be 1 for HDMI sound I believe.
After a reboot it should work.

@metalhead Awesome thanks!

For some reason now the N64 is the only emulator to have sound. The main menu, snes, neogeo, etc are silent. Did you have that issue too?

Nope, only for the N64. I can't imagine how making that change would affect all emulators.
I will have a think for you...

@metalhead I figured it out. For some reason the N64's volume level was way higher than all the other systems. So when I decreased the volume to 50%, I just couldn't hear the other emulators.

Such a dumb thing I overlooked.

Just had to adjust N64's config file.

Thanks for your help!
