#15 Application crashes at the start due to lack of audio driver

[Saoshyant]

I don't have sound on my Windows machine, as this onboard sound card has apparently not a single working driver anywhere.

Anyhow, my problem is not that I have sound; is that the application quits immediately after finding an audio error, leaving me unable to play around with it at all. And this is not good, as you will understand. I rather have an audio-less experience than no experience at all.

Here's a copy of the error log:

No suitable audio driver could be loaded.

Full text of error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "brainworkshop.pyw", line 628, in <module>
File "pyglet\media\__init__.pyc", line 1340, in <module>
File "pyglet\media\drivers\directsound\__init__.pyc", line 378, in driver_init
File "\loewis\25\python\Modules\_ctypes\callproc.c", line 757, in GetResult
WindowsError: [Error -2005401480] Windows Error 0x88780078

If the application could be changed to carry on even without sound, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

you're right, one can play eg. position-color game. I sent a fix for that for review, so it could be fixed soon.
