Idea: Carousel Scrolling Sound & Back Sound

[lilbud]

I wanted to add some sounds to my Switch theme, I currently have 3:

• back.wav
• scroll.wav
• select.wav

I wanted these sounds to play at their respective times. "Scroll.wav" would play when selecting a system on the carousel as well as in the gamelist. The sound will only play when added to the textlist code. But crashes the theme when added under carousel.

Similarly, I wanted "back.wav" to play when going back to the system select from the gamelist, but that doesn't work. "Select.wav" works fine when choosing a game.

Could sound support be added for the carousel and as an exit sound?

@lilbud
If I recall I read somewhere that these were partially coded in before ES was abandoned.

I may be entirely wrong though.

I agree that these additions would really appreciated.

@Syhles That's a shame, but the game select sound and gamelist scrolling sounds play, but carousel scrolling and exiting a menu are silent.

@lilbud this is not terribly difficult to implement, I'd say go ahead and create a new issue on the tracker, so that developers can pick it up when they want to.
It's a good project for someone to get started, as you probably can just follow the same approach as currently implemented for the gamelist scrolling and launch sounds.

Thanks for bringing this up!

@Zigurana I added it on the ES repository.
