Windows 10 Pro, using latest stable retroarch.

For some reason after I did a fresh Windows install, Mednafen no longer has sound and I have no understanding as to why.

Before the fresh install I had Mednafen working 100 flawlessly, sound was absolutely fine.

Mednafen Error Opening Cd Driver Issue So

I initially thought it was a driver issue so Ive then done another fresh windows install with the same issue.

Ended up reverting to whatever generic hdmi audio driver windows supplies and there is no change.

This leads me to believe it is an issue with the core its self and not the driver.

Mednafen Error Opening Cd How To Fix This

Has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this I have been around the internet for hours trying to find anyone reporting this issue and outside of Linux it seems no one has seen this problem, so Im asking here and hoping.

I honestly never realised how bad the alternatives were until I saw for myself how good this emulator is.

I have tested this with Spyro 3, Medievil, Tekken 3 and Ninja Shadow of Darkness.

I have made sure that everything is installed correctly but I did have to manually install the d3dx943.dll file as I did last time.

Thanks guys. NOTE - Tested with headphones and there is no sound either, so it definitely isnt the sound driver causing the issue.

EDIT - I have now tested with Mupen and there is no sound there either, turns out its retroarch and not Mednafen but would appreciate any input anyway.

EDIT - Now that Ive found its a Retroarch problem, was an easy fix.

Simply changed the audio driver from xaudio to dsound.
