Linux Client And Headphones

Recommended Posts

The client on Linux runs fine for me. Mint, which is just Ubuntu under the hood. But there is one problem which is killing me. It won't use the USB headphones. I plug them in and all other apps come out the headphones, but Wurm comes out the speakers. Any Linux folks have any ideas on why?

Some things you can try:

Set wurm to OpenAL sound engine.

Install the pavucontrol package and select the audio output manually.

If that does not help, edit /etc/openal/alsoft.conf and add the line (or change remove the # and edit the current one to):

drivers = pulse

Got it working, thank you. I installed Oracle's java too, but for some reason the game just seems way too jumpy and is way harder to play than on Windows on the same computer. Need to figure that out next.
