I found an old post about this same issue but not regarding Mint, Im new to using linux and need some help.

Same issue here on Debian. There is no sound from the game. I extracted the tar.gz file and just ran the x86_64 binary.

Hey, I just ran into the same issue and resolved it on Ubuntu by installing `pulseaudio`. I'm honestly not the most sure of specific installation instructions, but I ran something like:

 

```

sudo apt-get install libpulse

sudo apt-get install pulseaudio

pulseaudio --start

```

 

and then my system's device output changed to something random -- I had to change it back to my headphones. But after that I can hear sound!

 

Something that was useful in debugging was running this to ensure `pulseaudio` was working:

 

```
paplay /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/complete.oga
```

 

^ just plays a nice ding sound that succeeds if the audio is set up.
