#153 new defect

Playing AU sound files is not as good as playing natively on OS/2

Description

I found one application, BGBlitz 2.7.3 where the au files sound like they're in a tin can. If I click upon them, OS/2 plays them fine. <http://www.bgblitz.de/download/linux/bgblitz.tar.gz> It is a Blackgammon game.

Sorry, if this is a duplicate.

A possible reason is that the application is too old and uses the old JavaSound interface which is known to be broken in OpenJDK 6 (on all platforms). Please check it on other platforms (Windows and Linux).

Replying to dmik:

The program was updated last May 24, 2011. I am not saying that it does not use the old Java sound interface, but... Its sound works fine on Windows. Have not started Linux since sometime two years ago when I got my first SSD.
