You passed invalid parameters to angband command. Please have a look at "angband -help" to get a valid parameter set. The correct parameter set is "angband -msdl2" Closing INVALID.

Is angband-data-sounds installed from nonfree repo?
(In reply to David GEIGER from comment #7) > Is angband-data-sounds installed from nonfree repo? It is, no joy.
Assigning to you, David, as you are looking at this. Aurelian will be helpful if you make any progress. And if you win, the update should got to M9 core/updates_testing etc. It seems that angbad itself is core, not nonfree.

confirming that: angband -msdl2 allows the game to run. the game defaults with: angband -msdl , so this needs be changed.
Figured out that sound is fine, just read the manual issue on my behalf, :(. Sound is off by default and player must turn it on explicitly (in game press "=", i.e. player settings menu, then press/select "b" for turning sound on/off and save). Tested game on Mageia 9 $ rpm -qa | grep angband angband-data-shockbolt-4.2.4-1.mga9.nonfree angband-data-sounds-4.1.3-3.mga9.nonfree angband-data-4.2.4-1.mga9 angband-4.2.4-1.mga9 Cauldron angband-data-shockbolt-4.2.5-1.mga10.nonfree angband-data-sounds-4.1.3-3.mga9.nonfree angband-data-4.2.5-1.mga10 angband-4.2.5-1.mga10
Then re-assigning to QA! Sound should be activate manually by user's.

Now the = key not work
Angband sdl now strats correctly from menu launcher. thanks David
@Ben, once started the game, did the = key works on the sdl launcher for you?
(In reply to katnatek from comment #17) > @Ben, once started the game, did the = key works on the sdl launcher for you? not that I find out. todays testing is on a : TOSHIBA product: Satellite C50D-B CPU: AMD E1-6010 APU with AMD Radeon R2 and running in a V/box. Will check on my r/h/w install R930 tonight.
tried on the R930. tried the sound function on angband (x11) from menu entry first to see how it works. "^=" then "a", then "b" ( yes / no, selected "yes", then "s" to save. had a bit of a play ( killed the scruffy dog!). sound is very quiet, even when maxxed. then ran angband (SDL2) from menu entry. sound can be toggled on and off, but again, very quiet ( you have slain the singing happy drunk )
