liborc from steam-runtime is too old for newer pulseaudio

[arichardson]

I have no sound in most games. The following line is printed to the

/usr/bin/pulseaudio: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libpulsecore-4.0.so: undefined symbol: orc_program_new_from_static_bytecode

steam runtime has 0.4.16 of liborc, however that function was only introduced in 0.4.17. Deleting those libs from the steam runtime makes the sound work again since it then uses the system libs

Is this the right place to report this issue, or should it be ValveSoftware/steam-runtime?

Had another user in #steamlug report the issue,

Unbeerable> Hi guys. My sound in games has gone after steam update. Is there a common way to resolve an issue? Maybe a point to start from.
Unbeerable> johndrinkwater, Fedora 19
Unbeerable> i see an error about pulseaudio, "PulseAudio connect failed (used only for Mic Volume Control) with error: Access denied"
Unbeerable> I can listen the music
Unbeerable> well, now I have new error "/usr/bin/pulseaudio: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libpulsecore-3.0.so: undefined symbol: orc_program_new_from_static_bytecode"

I'm seeing the same error as well

/usr/bin/pulseaudio: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libpulsecore-3.0.so: undefined symbol: orc_program_new_from_static_bytecode

actually this is a duplicate of #2834

[Plagman]

This is fixed and will be rolled out in a future version of the runtime. Thanks!

Hm, I guess fellas should be able to fix this via LD_PRELOAD hacks.
