OK so one day i played SMW and sound didn't work. Some reason some games have sound and others don't. Trying to figure how to fix it. Just within past week been installing preenv games. Up to point i lost sound in SMW really didn't install anything.

Games with sound:
Angry Birds
preenv:
Earth Worm Jim
Assassins Creed
Blades of fury
Coaster Rush 3D
NOVA
NFSU
Super Tux 2

Games without sound:
Super Mario War
TechnoballZ
Supertux
Gweled
Blocks
preenv:
Castle of Magic
Hero of Sparta
Glyder 2
NFL 2010(worked only once)
Oregon Trail
Radiant

My system sounds work fine, ring tones, touch click, music, vids.

I have tried both the apt-get install libsdl-mixer1.2=1:1.2.6-5+0m5 and ...+0m5+ogg+mp3 and neither change the sounds.

Trying to figure how certain games work and others don't. Have any ideas or things i should check?

Thanks

EDIT: I also ran each game from terminal to see errors and didn't see anything that was error popping up.

I have the same problem with gnurobbo and some other games. Switching libsdl-mixer with and without +ogg+mp3 didn't change anything and according to maemo.org gnurobbo should have all dependencies available on my N900.
Anything else we could try?

Found a thread that helped me with gnurobbo:

Look out for an libSDL-mixer with mikmod and don't install anything that will lead to removal of apps that have another version of libSDL-mixer in their dependencies ... oh how I love these ... not!
