      Hi mitu, I would like to know if this is a personal problem (sound problem) or if it is a global problem

      Not sure, I don't have Solarus installed. A log file would be useful to track the issue though.

        I'm trying to chat on Discord with the Solarus people. We'll see what they think about this issue. They have nice video games, I hope they can fix that problem.
        New edit: They will do some tests tomorrow

            Do you think it's related to that ? I have speak to hhromic on Discord, He will take a look on that.

              This might be related to the sound issue. Do you have PulseAudio installed and active ?

                I installed the official image from Retropie with the last update.
                I never played with sound parameters before. No I guess.

                Hhromic told me this on Discord :
                @Dteam looks like the audio device is opened by something else and Solarus can't use it.
                Do you have something else running in the background that uses the sound output?
                Maybe PulseAudio ? I have read recently that it causes trouble sometimes. I understand RetroPie should have disabled it for you automatically.

                  I tested the same game (Book of Mudora) and I have no issues with the sound in Solarus. Check again if you have PulseAudio installed and active - it's installed automatically in Raspberry Pi OS if you install the desktop.

                    Should I do this:

                    sudo apt-get --purge remove pulseaudio
sudo apt-get autoremove

                      You can disable PulseAudio from the Audio menu in RetroPie - it will tell you if it's active. Removing it might remove other needed packages also.

                        I don't see this option in the Audio menu.

                        I have :
                        0 - HDMI
                        1 - Headphone
                        M - Mixer
                        R - Rest to default

                          @dteam Then you don't have PulseAudio installed or it's not active/enabled.

                            Not installed
                            Audio card = default

                            OMX player audio device = alsa

                            All my emulators working fine except that one. It's strange

                              Might be an OpenAL issue. Can you try creating a configuration file - $HOME/.alsoftrc - with the following contents:

                              [alsa]
mmap = false

                              and re-try starting a Solarus game ?
