Reicast lost sound after update

Open startup menu and select reicast-audio-oss.

Thanks @gizmo98 I was with 3.8.1 version, I updated from the inside script and I think that It didn't come good, now I installed 4.0 and everything is perfect again. I didn't try your suggestion, but thanks again. @turnerl now you have two options, install the whole 4.0 version or try what gizmo98 suggested, although I didn't see that option in 3.8.1 so I think gizmo98 was writing about 4.0 version.

@nicapi

Thanks I'll give this a try shortly, cheers

nicapi

For me this is "Solved!"

turnerl

nicapi do you mean you downloaded and installed the new 4.0 release onto your SD CARD? im hoping for a solution without having to reload all my roms again.

turnerl

i tried updating all installed packages and os/kernal i'm on 4.0.1 still no sound. I could not see the option gizmo98 mentioned either?

gizmo98 could you tell me how to open the startup menu, sorry?

gizmo98

Press x or m (or a controller button) when the grey info field appears. There you can select another emulator.

thanks gizmo98 i got into the menu when starting a dc game and have the following options:

1 select default emulator for dreamcast (reicast)
2 select emulator for rom ()
4 select default video mode for reicast ()
5 select video mode for reicast + rom ()

turnerl

10 select framebuffer res for reicast ()
11 select framebuffer res for reicast + rom ()
x launch
q exit (without launching)

It will be under the first option

@turnerl
Do you use audio jack or an external audio device?

turnerl

I dont use an external audio device just a hdmi to tv

This worked, Thanks very much to everyone!

@turnerl try to reinstall just reicast, hopefully that istalls the reicast-audio-oss option, but yes, I installed the 4.0 release and put all my roms in again, thats a pain I know, but works.

turnerl

thanks nicapi, I had already updated my packages so I just went into option 1, '1 select default emulator for dreamcast (reicast)' and the option for oss-audio was there.
