Sound is not playing...

Solar2D Lua Language
#1

local drumkit = display.newImage( “DrumKit.png” )

local snare = display.newCircle(90,190,60)
local snaresound = audio.loadSound(“snare_wav.wav”)

function snare:tap(event)
play = audio.play(snaresound)
end

snare:addEventListener(“tap”, snare)

Why isn’t the sound playing? The sound’s file name is correct.

The output says:

Failed to create audio sound(snare_wav.wav)

How can I fix this?

#3

Do any of the samples that Corona play sound (like SimplePoolPlus)? If so, then the problem is likely your snare_wav.wav is encoded in a strange format which isn’t supported instead of linear PCM 16-bit little endian.

All others play, so what could I do? [import]uid: 96404 topic_id: 16140 reply_id: 60063[/import]

#5

Re-encode your file so it is 16-bit little endian linear PCM. Or re-encode into another supported codec/file container like mp3.
