Sound issue in MAME

<< < (5/5)

Oh, are you using HDMI or the analog video out? (Sound may also be transferred over HDMI, so it could be of importance.)

Thanks for linking this, solved my issues with usb sound working everywhere but MAME.
Sound is much better using usb on my Pi2- analog had a constant hiss.

Aceisback:
That's weird that mame does not have any sound. Did you go into the mame settings (TAB key) and check the audio settings there? I know you can adjust the volume there if I remember correctly. I know I had to adjust the volume on my setup.

Peabo:
Are you getting static in the sound?  If so, you need to use an AV cable and not a stereo cable like this one:  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W8FHIYQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage  The headphone port is actually an AV port, so with a stereo cable the top ring isn't separated and the video and ground are connected causing static in the audio.

I actually have one of these kicking around somewhere and will try this before mucking with usb again on a fresh 3.0 RC1 install. Thanks for the tip!
