'OpenAL Error: 40964' on Ubuntu 18.04

Seems like it's failing when it's trying to get an audio device/sink @ AlNative.alcOpenDevice(null).on ALEngine.cs

This library is still somewhat WIP. Can you show your code? I didn't test on anything but Windows yet. Do you have libopenal installed?

[jmacato]

I've just ran the SharpAudio.Sample package out-of-the-box. I havent checked but i do think i have it installed since the dll checks would fail otherwise

Sorry for the delay. I'll check this on my own Ubuntu machine and then check for the source of the problem.

So i fixed the problem. The issue was that alGetError always throws an error on Ubuntu for some reason and i was always crashing the application in that case. I tested on on Ubuntu 18.04 and i can't spot any issues on Ubuntu 18.04 anymore. Please let me know if it works for you aswell!

Thanks, there doesnt seem to be any OpenAL errors! although it fails to play some wav file that i give it to :(

Hm, i only checked with the 2 files that are in the repository so far. (SharpAudio.Tests/Assets). The issue with wav files is that they support 20 different kind of compressions and i only support uncompressed (PCM) and ADPCM so far. Are you getting any errors?

I created a new issue, let's take the discussion there
