Hi. Which distribution are you using? Cpal needs the ALSA development files to build. Please check if the package containing them for your distribution is installed and try again

Hey, I am using Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS, do you know where I can look to see if I have it installed and if not where to get it?

[p4ddy1]

I never used Pop!_OS but on Ubuntu the package is called alsa-lib

[Thubs]

I have verified that it has been installed and still nothing

@Thubs did you try to do a clean build?

[Thubs]

Yes I did

@Thubs I had this error while I was compiling but after I added alsa-lib-devel(I use fedora) it worked fine.

@Thubs I think you also need the package libasound2-dev
