Bug Description

When I used Gutsy, I switched to pulseaudio by following this guide:
http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup
Now I'm on a fully updated Hardy Heron.

Before version 1.51 of Zsnes, I couldn't get the sound working with pulseaudio.
Luckily, v.1.51 is in the repositories now. However, about a week ago sound disappeared from Zsnes, after a system upgrade.

Here's my console output (I run zsnes with "padsp"):

Notice the line with "libpulsedsp.so".

I also checked with "pavucontrol", but I couldn't see any stream from Zsnes there.

If I use "paplay" to play a .wav, I get sound and everything works fine, but "speaker-test" does not work:

There's a hint at http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#SDL that there's a new PA driver for SDL.

I commented out this line in /etc/environment:
export SDL_AUDIODRIVER=esd

And installed this package:
libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio

After issuing this command, I tried running zsnes again:
unset SDL_AUDIODRIVER

When zsnes start, I get some really weird noises. It's like a .5 second machinegun-crackle.
The sound actually works in Zsnes now, but the sound is full of delay and random tiny crackling-sounds.

When I run zsnes with padsp, it's the same result. I get sound, but it's horribly delayed.

So, I do get sound in Zsnes now, but it's not right.

zsnes uses SDL and libao. Both of these need to be configured to use pulse as the default.

speaker-test is an ALSA app. Because PA is configured to use hw:index instead of default:index, you will have the symptom. Use "pasuspender -- speaker-test" if you really want to test using speaker-test.

I've followed this guide:

If I'm not mistaken, sound does not work right with zsnes+pulseaudio on a fresh Hardy installation.
This would then be a bug in either zsnes or pulseaudio, not a wish?

Daniel: I correctly configured both libao and SDL with latest Hardy. Other SDL apps works fine (for example, Scummvm plays audio smoothly). Only zsnes isn't heardable at all.

Probably a bug in zsnes?

Starting it gives me (among other messages):

I tried also with a 44100 sample rate, but no sound is heard, either.

Frankly I consider this Zsnes fault, or libao fault. There must be some misuse of ALSA APIs somewhere, or some other black magic that shouldn't be there. I'm in line with Lennart's opinion here:
http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/lca2008.html (see section named "Rumors").

This isn't about adding pulseaudio support to Zsnes. It's fixing Zsnes or libao so that they behave correctly, at least imo.

To work around this problem, start zsnes with the following command:

zsnes -ad sdl

You only need to do that once. After that it will remember that going forward and just typing "zsnes" will do the trick.

If you have garbled or low quality sound after running that command, inside zsnes set the sound quality to 48000.

I tried installing libsdl1.2debian-oss, but the result is the same as with libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio. I also went through ~/.zsnes/zsnesl.cfg, making sure all sound settings were "acceptable for use in bug-reports". The sound still "crackles" and sounds wrong in zsnes+pulseaudio.

I, too, am having this problem. I'm using a Dell Latitude D810 and audio card comes up as this under hardware information: 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller

I would like to point out that in addition to no sound coming from zsnes I can't get any OTHER sounds to play from other programs while running ZSNES. For example, system sounds will not play. The moment I close zsnes I get those sounds again.

I used the SDL sound driver trick and got sound working, but it crackles just like the user above stated. I switched audio to 48khz and still get crackling. I also tried installing the newer libsdl driver and it still crackles.

If you need any more information, let me know!

I've tried as Jeremy had posted, to start zsnes as :
'zsnes -ad sdl'

this does fix my sound, but i get non crackled sound only at 8kHz. At higher rates the sound is terrible as others have experienced.

Alexander Rødseth (alexanro) wrote :

I tried zsnes -ad sdl too, and several other variations in both parameters, config-files and zsnes-versions. Sound works in Zsnes, but it still stutters, almost "vibrates", in a quick sine-wave kind of way. In the current state, zsnes is not usable for me. I've also seen this problem in other applications, specifically a game called Adanaxis ("adanaxisgpl" to run). This leads me to believe that this is not an issue with Zsnes, but with Pulseaudio.

Btw, "paplay any.wav" works fine here, but speaker-test does not work, even with pasuspender:

Installing libsdl1.2debian-oss FINALLY worked for me, but for some weird
reason I had to REBOOT my machine for it to take effect (perhaps a logout
would have sufficed). I also had to set zsnes -ad sdl.

Works now too, it took *two* reboots though.... Then again, I'm having a bear of a time getting Amarok to work also, might just be something else on my system.

But yes, I saw no progress whatsoever until installing libsdl1.2debian-oss.

My conclusion from all this is that:
* this is probably not a bug in Zsnes (since other games that use SDL have the same problem)
* this is probably not a bug in Pulseaudio (since other programs can play sound just fine)
* this is probably a bug in libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio

I guess this is the updated workaround?

zsnes -ad sdl with libsdl1.2debian-oss installed on previous versions of ubuntu worked ok, although it definitely didn't produce the best quality sound. Some ways to increase this was to change the sound to 48000hz, and I was just recently informed that running with ROM-specific hacks turned off (zsnes -dh -ad sdl as shown here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4904969&postcount=13) may help as well.

But the best sound quality comes from using zsnes -ad oss with the libao library. On 64-bit hardy systems, this requires that you place the 32-bit libao libraries from /usr/lib32/ao/plugins-2/ in /usr/lib/ao/plugins-2 so that zsnes can use them.

Has anyone been able to figure out how to get zsnes + oss + libao + pulseaudio to work nicely together in hardy? Or at the very least, zsnes + sdl + libsdl1.2debian-oss + pulseaudio on the 64-bit arch (I assume this involves installing the libsdl1.2debian-oss 32-bit library instead of the 64-bit)?

Jordan Callicoat (monkeesage) wrote :

@all:

As explained by the creator of OSS3 (and 4): "Level of latencies [depend on] buffer size."[1]

So, to fix stuttering sound (from SDL or elsewhere) on pulseaudio + alsa, increase the number of buffers (default: 12) and the buffer sizes (default: 1024). Edit /etc/pulse/default.pa as superuser, and add the following lines anywhere BEFORE the line ".ifexists module-hal-detect.so":

load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=output device=hw:0 fragments=24 fragment_size=2048
load-module module-alsa-source source_name=input device=hw:0 fragments=24 fragment_size=2048

Be sure to restart pulseaudio for the settings to take effect:

pulseaudio -k ; pulseaudio --daemonize

After this, the unpatched zsnes 1.51 with -ad sdl switch, or other apps that use SDL sound, should play smoothly (if you're not running all kinds of audio filters and what-not, see below).

For me, on 32-bit hardy, this works great with zsnes + libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio + alsa + pulseaudio. Not stuttering or popping during gameplay (though zsnes does still make strange r2d2 sounds when it first starts).

Also, for even lower latencies, you can add yourself to the pulse-rt group (sudo gpasswd -a <username> pulse-rt), then add the following lines at the bottom of /etc/pulse/daemon.conf

high-priority = yes
nice-level = -11
realtime-priority = 5
default-fragments = 8
default-fragment-size-msec = 15

Then after a logout and re-login to X, pulse should run with a higher system priority and be more greedy for samples, which should also improve latency. On my system (athlon 1.8GHz, 1gig ram), using the settings above for default.pa and these in daemon.conf, I can run zsnes with simulate surround, 48000 sample rate, cubic spline interpolation and hi quality lowpass filter, with very minor twitches. At 44100 sample rate it is perfectly smooth.

Heh, yeah...just thought of something else as well. You can also pass a command line option to pulseaudio called --resample-method (or set it in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf for permenant use), which lets you choose which resampler to use. Some are faster and some sound better. I think the ffmpeg resampler has a good balance of speed and quality, but YMMV. There are a bunch to play with (list them with pulseaudio --dump-resample-methods).
