WORKAROUND - post #2

No sound/music on two different Linux PCs (Debian Testing & Mint 17.3). Debian one only has ALSA installed. I actually left pulse installed on the Mint PC.
Launching the game from the terminal doesn't show anything interesting:
Running Tahira: Echoes of the Astral Empire

Did a bit of searching on that error and found a workaround!
$ cd /path/to/game/Tahira.x86_64
$ ln -s /dev/null libpulse-simple.so.0
I do have some pulse libs installed on my Debian box, but not sure why it wasn't working on the Mint one as that's using pulseadio.

Anyway, I will go play now. If you guys still want logs let me know and I'll package & email them to you.

Hi Gydion,

Glad that you found a work-around. Some searching of my own has uncovered that this seems to be an issue with Unity 5.3 (the version we use) failing to interact with PulseAudio correctly.
http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/failed-to-get-number-of-drivers.377026/
It's been fixed in Unity 5.4, and we're planning to migrate to that version for our v1.1 patch, which we're aiming to have done in a few weeks. Hopefully all will be well after that.

Cheers,

Tom C.
