Description
Historically, Descent 3 was used two independent sound devices:
- MVE video cut scenes (
libmve/mve_audio) - Rest of audio (
sndlib/sdlsound)
As result MVE playback ignores all sound settings and cmd-line options regarding sound volume, buffering etc.
We should unify these two devices into one and provide configuration options.
Regression Status
Always.
Steps to Reproduce
Hear maxed out thunder of Dolby Surround every time at 2 AM.
