I recently installed OpenMW a couple of days ago and have been having consistent issues with the client not recognizing my audio output device. Any help would be appreciated. Below is what displays on my log when I boot it up.

That's a log from TES3MP, which isn't quite the same thing as OpenMW. I'm not sure of the specific cause of this issue, but it may be easier to get the attention of someone who can by mentioning that it's TES3MP. If I can figure out how, I'll move this to the right forum section, too.

Ah thank you, figured this was the right place to put it, my mistake.

One easy way to find out... can you install regular singleplayer OpenMW and check if the sound works fine in it?

Posted: **27 Mar 2019, 21:34**

I have just installed it and I am able to hear audio. Should I post the log?

Please do.

Does it maybe help if you install latest OpenAL?

I don't know why I didn't do that earlier. I'm now able to hear sounds in the game.
