Hi, I was surprised by this new issue bug report for Goldsrc games. So, i'm just tried to use Mic but is not working, All input and output are broken, so when i go boot to windows it's running fine but On linux never work it with me.

On windows when someone speak with his mic, it's pop-up a small text that's contains the speaker's name On Linux, never show me the pop-up

Make sure you are connecting to an up to date server and not playing with non-steam clients, this report sounds exactly like non-steam causing you problems.

@alfred-valve but the big problem is the cs1.6 not detecting any voice input, i tried to use steam with SDL_AUDIODRIVER=alsa steam but nothing improve it

[revo4ever]

any idea's or workarounds ?

[vjatseslav]

This is a nonsteam server. Steam and nonsteam players won't hear each others.

[revo4ever]

but the last month, it's work it fine. just test this Steam server 77.220.180.51:27015

[vjatseslav]

Steam users can hear steam users - that's all. Last month we had no updates.

[revo4ever]

Did you try this ip 77.220.180.51:27015 before you answer me now ? the problem is the CS1.6 is never detecting the MIC, i try to join a steam server but no output heard

[revo4ever]

@alfred-valve On Windows the cs1.6 detect fine my input voice but on linux, the test voice bar is stuck or whatever, and there's no input

[revo4ever]

SDL_InitSubSystem(SDL_INIT_AUDIO) failed.

[revo4ever]

@alfred-valve hi again, and sorry because i did not clearly explain the issue, i found this 2 lines errors

HP-Elite-PC:~/.steam/steam/SteamApps/common/Half-Life$ SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulse ./hl.sh -game cstrike Error:libopenal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Could not load hw.so.

Closing due to age. Please create a new issue if this still occurs with the 25th anniversary update (December 2023 Steam build) on a current Linux distribution.
