Title: Mala Screensaver stopping sound
Post by: mavsprophecy on March 06, 2013, 02:18:00 pm

I like having the Mala screensaver set up for my system, but once it comes on sound won't return until I go reset the Volume Control program.  It turns the "Wave" part all the way down.  It does this both when I have "No Sound" checked or unchecked.

I have Mala .174 and Mame .144 I believe.  On Windows XP.

Thanks!

Any ideas?

Mmmmmm... I don't use a screensaver, let alone one with sound, but you might want to take a look at this Wiki for help regarding "background sound": http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Mala_JukeBox (http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Mala_JukeBox)

The second section talks about sounds with layouts. This might not be what you want, but then again, it might give you a new idea or two. Something to chew on.

Sorry I can't be of more help.  :(

Did you find any workaround ?
