Another Neverball contributor here. After a couple of unsuccessful attempts to locate a good version of SDL_mixer, I gave up and switched my attention to SDL. (Note: I'm using Debian, but I am aware that this issue also occurs on various other operating systems and should be treated as such.)
There are old libsdl1.2 Debian packages available at http://snapshot.debian.net/package/libsdl1.2. By using dpkg to downgrade the libsdl1.2debian-alsa package, I quickly managed to locate the last known-good version, which is "1.2.7+1.2.8cvs20041007-5" (trailing "5"). The version right after this one, "1.2.7+1.2.8cvs20041007-5.1" (trailing "5.1"), has the problem. My understanding is that the upstream sources used for both packages are identical. Locating the cause of the issue should be a matter of looking at the diff of debian subdirectories of those packages by a person familiar with SDL and Debian packaging. But unfortunately, I am not that person. -- Sound crackles & snaps when SDL volume not set at 100% https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66483 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
