SDL_OpenAudioDevice failed: Audio subsystem is not initialized I installed it on linux via snap. I need a fix for this.

can you give the alternative emulator Box16 a swing instead? (it's superior in multiple ways to the default emulator)

There should also be a command line parameter like -nosound that you can specify. I'm sure Box16 has this, but I believe x16emu should as well.

Okay, the option I was looking for was -sound none to specify no audio.

@AwesomeStickguy try changing the SDL audio device via:

SDL_AUDIODRIVER=alsa x16emu

or substitute something else for alsa depending on your system's configuration. Here's a list.
