This does not seem to be a dosbox problem, but rather a remnant of the problems introduced by the introduction of pulseaudio. Since pulseaudio is not run as a system service by default (cf. /etc/init/pulseaudio.conf) timidity probably shoud not either.
This entry in the Arch wiki seems to describe the same issue: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/timidity#Daemon It might be better to just autostart something like "/usr/bin/timidity -Os -iAD" when the user logs in, instead of starting a system wide daemon at boot time. But maybe someone with a deeper knowledge of how the ubuntu audio stack is supposed to work could weigh in on this. ** Package changed: dosbox (Ubuntu) => timidity (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: timidity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997325 Title: dosbox and timidity daemon don't play nice To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/timidity/+bug/997325/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
