Hello again!

I have attached our asound.conf and output from aplay -vv  plus versions of libopenal and libasound

The alsoft.conf have the following settings active

format = AL_FORMAT_71CHN16
drivers = alsa
[alsa]
device = SAAB93 #see /etc/asound.conf for reference

all other settings use the default values. 

Best regards


I hope this will clarify some details about our system

Hi.

Typically an error like that would mean there's an issue with the device, or 
something OpenAL Soft itself sets in combination with the device that it 
doesn't quite like. There's nothing specific to an app using OpenAL that 
should be able to cause it, though (this stuff is sufficiently abstracted 
away),

Can you say what sound hardware you have?
Do you use PulseAudio?
What version of OpenAL Soft?
Do you have any special settings in ~/.alsoftrc or /etc/openal/alsoft.conf?
