Play bootSound.btsnd while shaders/pipelines are compiling
implementation of the suggestion in issue #1045 In the process I also ended up removing some duplicate code in the way that audio initialises.
Tested on Windows but I hear nothing from bootSound.btsnd, is this option enabled by default? Edit: Ah I see the problem, bootSound.btsnd will not be played when the latency of the audio is set to 0ms
And I found another bug. XAudio2 does not work properly with this PR no matter what latency you set it to
Latest version should work on all API's and latency settings. Unrelated but I think before merging these changes it's probably a good idea to make this functionality disabled by default. I think it would be startling for users who update to suddenly hear audio when loading a game. When someone has short loading times it will play just a little bit of the audio and then abruptly cut out which also isn't very polished. I also heard that audio dropouts like that can blow up speakers in exceptional cases.
The audio drop out is definitely a problem that could make your PR get blocked from merging (I say could, because I am not a maintainer). Is there a way to make the audio fade out smoothly without complicating the code?
I may have overstated how bad of an issue it is. Going from sound to silence like that happens every time you pause a YouTube video. So I recon anyone dealing with audio systems that could actually be damaged from that knows to be extra careful when hooking up computer software to it. Main concerns are the fact that it's unexpected and unpolished.
I see, makes sense. I was a little worried with the issue but I see what you mean now
