audio failing under mame 2003 etal

dom_moir

totally confused...

retropie no longer plays audio for lr-mame 2003 et al
works under daphne (and batocera) so not a hardware issue

i've spent hours reconfiguring various config files with 'help' from chatgpt.

ulimately it keeps telling me the same thing... check alsa, update retroarch settings - with variations on the below (dont focus on those)

driving me mad - one day it worked - next it didnt

as said - batocera works and I've done a bog standard install to see what's up
funnily enough it works, but it'll take me so long to get he system reconfigured to how it is now.

audio_enable = "true"
audio_driver = "alsa"
audio_device = "default"
audio_mute_enable = "false"
audio_mixer_mute_enable = "false"
audio_volume = "1.000000"
audio_latency = "32"
audio_resampler = "sinc"

Please add the info asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first to your post.

dom_moir

@mitu noted and added - think i've got enough for you experts to be going with???

mitu

@dom_moir Not really. You didn't even added the RetroPie version - the info you provided is present on any Pi3 and it's not specific to your setup.

dom_moir

just delete the thread - i've started a total rebuild
