Re: KGS Sound Issues in Ubuntu


Actually what I meant was, I am interested in eventually switching to Linux, but still need to be able to run certain Windows programs.

Re: KGS Sound Issues in Ubuntu

There is a problem in the execution chain of Java's 'javaws' command, which will usually cut off sound!

Thanks for the advice, but unfortunately it's still the same situation for me.

I restarted, made sure that everything was closed, ran:

pulseaudio -k

and then

padsp java -jar ~/.java ...
