Description
I used the OpenTK 0.9.6 in my application. And I had a serious problem with sounds through OpenAL on openSUSE . After my changes, the initialization of sound will run and sound is playing on openSUSE Linux!.
I attached modified files for OpenTK 0.9.8
I would like also to exploit the SoundData class in my application but at present I cannot. I added the simple modification of this class which gladly I would see at the standard OpenTK library.

I cannot reproduce this on Ubuntu amd64 with OpenAL Soft. I will test on openSUSE once I get VirtualBox working again.
#2
I can reproduce this on openSUSE 11.0. It seems they still ship with OpenAL 0.0.8, which is broken in too many ways to count (for example, throwing an 'OutOfMemory' on initialization, which stops AudioContext from working).

I'm interested whether the new&improved^TM AudioContext handles this correctly. Can you please run this diagnosis app and either c&p or attach the output?

The best course of action would be notifying openSUSE developers about the outdated driver, so they can update to OpenAL 1.1 though. (Afaik other distributions just did that)
Priority changed to minor, because it's an ancient driver.
#5
Can someone please test whether this issue persists in OpenTK 0.9.9-1 or newer?
#6
I am going to close this as invalid. If someone can confirm that the problem persists with OpenTK 0.9.9-3 or higher, please reopen the issue.
