Proton: Portal Knights runs with no sound (374040)

[BrandonDyer64]

The game seems to run without issue, except for the lack of sound.

Flawless! I almost thought it was a native Linux app! But as OP states, no audio, for me either. Here is my log!

Proton 3.7-5
Concur with @BrosephJ and @BrandonDyer64 except Ubuntu's sidebar pushes game window a little offscreen to the right.
DS4 controller works perfectly.

Looks like this is a problem with the buildin library "xaudio2_7".

Got sound to work by installing "xact" with winetricks and then setting "xaudio2_7" to native with winecfg.

With Proton version 3.16-5 and FAudio the game starts up on first start and with audio. But it crashes every time the moment when pressing any key before the main menu.

Does it require FAudio to be compiled with WMA support?

[NoXPhasma]

When I run with debug and FFMPEG enabled I get this error:

WARN: 

Assertion failure at FAudioVoice_SetOutputMatrix (/home/noxp/build/FAudio/src/FAudio.c:1519), triggered 2 times:
  'i < voice->sends.SendCount'

Logfile: steam-374040.log

It doesn't look like a FFMPEG related problem, I guess @flibitijibibo knows more.

Only found one thing in the log, which should now be fixed:

https://github.com/FNA-XNA/FAudio/commit/13429301cccfe7a051a7f3e2e511d8fbe0fd96bb

Someone should probably tell them they have an invalid call stream...

[NoXPhasma]

That commit fixed it. On exit of the game another debug warning raised, but I guess that can be ignored. But I want to show it anyway:

WARN: 

Assertion failure at LinkedList_RemoveEntry (/home/noxp/build/FAudio/src/FAudio_internal.c:236), triggered 1 time:
  '0 && "LinkedList element not found!"'

I've also filed a bug report to the Portal Knight developers to let them know about this issue.

Thanks! We got the bug report and we will take a look into it. Note that we currently can't really support the Linux 'version' of the game but it's cool that it seems to run nicely. /jkoenen (works on the engine used in Portal Knights)

Portal Knights is working great, no tweaking of xact needed anymore. I did have a problem starting it up--in portal_knights.cfg, I changed "window Type": "Default" to "Fullscreen" to get it to start, otherwise it would crash. (Error in the log was that the Display wasn't found.) Once I changed the value once, it started right up. I'm playing in windowed, but the portal_knights.cfg file says "Default" again for windowType. Is portal_knights.cfg set elsewhere than in the game's directory? (It's playing in windowed mode, but I'm not sure why when the config file isn't reflecting it.)

I also needed to use local libraries, in order for gnutls to work.

In the interest of testing, I tried Portal Knights on another user account. I had to kill the process once, but it started fine on the second try. No issues with incorrect window types in portal_knights.cfg. I'm thinking it's a bug with the game, since there were windows users having the same issue.

I'm trying to mate it work on proton 5.0. PROTON_USE_WINED3D, delete winepulse.drv, manual create portal_knights.cfg, never worked. I get only a yellow cursor, audio, and a dummy window. Maybe creating portal_knights.cfg in a windows environment?
