Hi,
I'm just new on PlayOnLinux.
I have Ubuntu 9.10, Wine 1.0.1 (standard with ubuntu) and an updated POL 3.7.3
I installed, patched, etc AOE III without a problem.
I did set the sound configuration (Wine Config in POL) on ALSA. The sound test in Wine Config is good.
When I start the game, I have the introduction film WITH sound. After that: NO SOUND (city screen with menus, game, ...). I tried DirectSound (Wine Config) on hardware emulation, but without succes.
Windows: no problem.
Can anyone help me?
Thx,
Koen

Make sure no other sound application (Amarok, Rhythmbox etc.) is running when you start AOE III then try again.
Did you try to set OSS in WineConfig? If you want to try it install alsa-oss package earlier.

Hi,
1. no other sound application is running
2. i did try OSS in WineConfig, after installing alsa-oss
... but no difference.
BTW, I get the following error when I "Update the wineprefix" or "Simulate Windows reboot": "Program error, dxdllreg.exe has encountered a serious problem ..." (translated form Dutch). I didn't had this problem in the previous POL version.
Koen.

Hmm... maybe it's caused by Wine. Did you try to play AOE III on Wines with lower version numbers?

Lower version: how?

OK, I lowered to 1.1.10 and it worked. There was even no error when updating wineprefix and/or windows boot simulation.
Why?

But with 1.1.10 AOEIII - Asian Dynasties won't work:
screen and sound problems from the start.

Try higher Wine version, but lower than the one on which you've got issues.

In Asian Dynasties the introduction works <=1.1.19, but it hangs from the start of the city menu (but with the city menu sound!). I tried it until 1.1.14, but it still hangs (BTW 1.1.15 has problems installing in POL!). I remarked that there is a sound delay with ALSA, but not with OSS.
<= 1.1.19 there is also not a Program Error, when I "Update the wineprefix" or "Simulate Windows reboot" (supra).

Strange cause I played whole game through (with ad ons) without any issue on Wine 1.1.35

And sound player? OSS or ALSA?

In POL's winecfg it was alsa, but Fedora uses PulseAudio.
