Audio ERROR: PulseAudio: init device failed on Linux (AtariOS)

When I build a Linux version of my game, to run on an Atari VCS, the audio does not work, and throws the following errors:

ERROR: PulseAudio: sink info error: No such entity at: pa_sink_info_cb (drivers/pulseaudio/audio_driver_pulseaudio.cpp:76) ERROR: PulseAudio: init device failed to detect number of output channels at: init_device (drivers/pulseaudio/audio_driver_pulseaudio.cpp:194)

I'm using Godot 3.4.4, on Windows 10, and use the default build settings. Any ideas? Thank you.

As a work-around, you might try passing "--audio-driver ALSA" on the command line or setting it in project settings. But that wouldn't actually solve the problem.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.

As you predicted it did not solve the issue using ALSA.

That's even worse than I expected. You might run it with "--verbose" to get more information.
