Description Mik 2019-07-27 10:45:31 UTC

Running system:
Linux mint 19 Cinnamon 64 Bit, Desktop PC Intel I5, Cinnamon version 3.8.9
RAM: 7.8 GB

uname -a: 4.15.0-55-generic #60-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 2 18:22:20 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Blinken Version 0.4

"About Blinken" results
KDE Frameworks 5.44.0

When I start the game I can hear the first two or three sounds for the corresponding color field. After that the program produces only sound clicks or chopped sound.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
On my system this is always reproducible after starting the game.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
On my ubuntu 16.04 (64 bit, Intel I7, 16 GB RAM) system the game runs properly.
On this system "Blinken" gives the following information:
version 0.4
KDE Frameworks 5.18.0
Qt 5.5.1 (compiled 5.5.1)
xcb window system

Are you using the same phonon backend on both?

Can you tell me how to determine which backend is used ?

Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2019-07-28 10:51:30 UTC

systemsettings -> multimedia -> audio & video -> backend

> systemsettings -> multimedia -> audio & video -> backend

Strange ... On both systems I can't found any settings for "Multimedia -> audio & video -> backend". I have "systemsettings" but without "multimedia".

So I ran through nearly all systemsettings on both systems but there is no hint for the audio & video backend.

Is there a system file where I can look into ?

you can use your package manager to see which phonon packages you have installed. Before you ask me how to do that, i don't use Linux Mint so i've no idea how that works.
