Genesis Sonic Sequels Sound Not Working #408

Open SquidgirlSupreme opened 1 month ago

SquidgirlSupreme commented 1 month ago

Describe the bug I've been using PicoDrive for genesis emulation, and I recently completed the original Sonic 1, and it worked perfectly fine. Naturally I thought I'd play through Sonic 2 next, but for some reason even though the game loads, the sound doesn't want to work. The game will load fine and can be played normally, but it's dead silent. Sometimes the "SEGA" chant works when the game boots up, but that happens only very rarely, and if it does the sound completely cuts out before the actual title screen loads.

I thought I might've just downloaded a bad rom, but I tried it with 4 different Sonic 2 roms, a Sonic 3 & Knuckles rom, and even Knuckles in Sonic 2, but they all encountered the same issue. The only thing I haven't tried that was suggested to me is deleting and re-downloading the emulator entirely in case my copy just has a weird bug, but I first wanted to see if this was an issue anyone else was having or could explain.

Update: NVM, I just got the latest update (updated both RALibretro and PicoDrive), and something in the latest update seems to have fixed the issue. Sound's working fine now in both cases, played all the way through Sonic 2 to make sure it wasn't a fluke. So feel free to disregard this issue.
