                ok here is what to try

                cd /opt/retropie/emulators/daphne/
                mv dapinput.ini dapinput.ini.bak

                do me a favour dont touch your joystick or controller. just start the emulator and use the keyboard 5 and 6 for credit 1 2 for controls for action and arrow keys.

                now start the emulator from emulation station and dont use the joystick just the keyboard

                            ok permissions are good case in files is good. Now only thing i can think of is your lair.commands has a silent switch been put on in it.

                            type
                            cat /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/lair.daphne/lair.commands

                            cat /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/lair.daphne/lair.commands
                            -nocrc -noissues -nolog -noserversend -latency 950 -x 640 -y 480 -blank_searches -min_seek_delay 1000 -seek_frames_per_ms 20 -bank 0 11111001 -bank 1 00100111

                                  It seems to play in vlc, the ogg file was downloaded using a pc and the dvd i own. Where could i get a different ogg file?

                                        So i figured it out. Only one speaker was working on my monitor. All the daphne games will work with 1 speaker except lair. move beeps from one speaker and background music and sound from the other one. Thank's for every one's help.

                                          @dizmodawg here is your problem..sorry I didn't see this sooner..

                                          you must add the correct configuration to the game or you WILL have that problem. ( the background music for Badlands for example not playing.) I learned this setting up attract mode on my PC with the "default setup". Many games you'll have that problem. Here's how to fix it:

                                          1. create a file called dle21.commands in the /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/dle21.daphne folder

                                          i.e. /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/dle21.daphne/dle21.commands

                                          • you can build it in nano or drop it via ssh

                                          • (I use the dle21 version because the dlair version will skip the drawbridge scene)

                                          1. paste the command below into the file:

                                          -blank_searches -min_seek_delay 1000 -seek_frames_per_ms 20 -bank 0 11111000 -bank 1 00110111 -noserversend -volume_vldp 64 -sound_buffer 960

                                          1. save it

                                          try it and let me know if that helps :D

                                          Here is my original post at the atractmode fourm here.
