There is no difference between Oracle JDK and OpenJDK Java Sound sources.

Hi there,

I am currently using JavaSound on Oracle JDK 1.8 on Linux and Windows. It's an unmitigated catastrophe.

Something as simple as playing a Clip only works 60% of the time. The other times, it just stays mute.

This may not be your fault as I'm not currently using OpenJDK. How different is the OpenJDK code base versus Oracle relating to JavaSound?

Should I try OpenJDK again?

The background is: I really want to support every end user out there, so both OpenJDK and Oracle JDK should run my software well...

I am working around the issue by actually invoking command line tools (aplay on Linux, cmdmp3.exe on Windows) for playing sounds. Perfect? Hell no. But JavaSound really is too thoroughly broken, at least on Oracle JDK.

Sorry for the harsh words. Where is the way out?

All the best,
Stefan
