I get absolutely no sound using the latest client viewer under ubuntu 7.10. I have checked that the sound is not muted and dont get sound on either in game audio streams or from the game itself. There are absolutely no error messages that i can see and the sound works just fine in any other application/game i have.

Sound worked just fine on same computer back when i was using 6.10. I have been taking a little break from second life, so i dont know if it is the new client or due to linux upgrade.

Any solution for this?

I tried disabling anything but alsa in the startup script: 2007-11-27T19:58:19Z INFO: init: ESD audio output SKIPPED
2007-11-27T19:58:19Z INFO: init: OSS audio output SKIPPED
2007-11-27T19:58:19Z INFO: init: Trying ALSA audio output...
2007-11-27T19:58:19Z INFO: ALSA audio output initialized OKAY
2007-11-27T19:58:19Z INFO: init: Audio output: ALSA

No errors that i can see... esound and oss fails though..
