Skyler Amore Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Voice is no longer working for me in any SL viewer. I have tired everything I know. I did a clean install of Firestorm, I tried other viewers, and I reinstalled the Linden SL viewer. I checked my audio settings in Windows with other programs and it works fine and I checked my voice settings in preferences and tried to refresh a few times. Nothing works. One thing that I notice when I go into Task Manager is that the SLVoice.exe file is showing as not enabled. I have tried deleting the file and restarting to see if it reloads and that doesn't work. I am at a loss. Not only can I no longer see the whit dot above my avatar, but I can't see it on anyone else either and I can't hear anyone else use voice. I have searched this forum and tried all of the above based on what I've read here. Any other ideas of what I may try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwin LeShelle Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Maybe your firewall is blocking SL voice? I remember once ages ago I had to allow it because I had this happen, but I am not much of a voicer in SL so I don't know if this still is a problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anlin Vaniva Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 I have the same issue since recently. I thought it's some kind of windows update fault. I even bought myself new microphone (I needed that anyway). Microphone is working but NOT in second life. I have no dot above my avatar and I can't hear anyone else aswell. Normally I'm using firestorm but because of that issue I even installed original SL browser and I have the same issue. Can anyone help please?

Chris Corvinus Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I haven’t been able to voice in SL since weeks ago. Just randomly stopped. I just use Discord now. Always something failing in SL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyLicksYouTo Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 im having the same problem to what do you have to do to get it to work so i can hear others? all my settings seem to be correctly set but still cant hear others!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giuliano13 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I'm using storm viewer in Debian Linux and I also have the same problem, I tried to do multiple adjustments, but it seems to be a game bug because it's all work normally in other programs and games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CandyLicksYouTo Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) yes it has to be a problem in the viewers them self because it works on every thing else like my games and skype or what ever other program i use!. just one more crappy thing they have messed up with the viewer updates to firestorm and sl as well as other viewers they really need to stop messing things up!. this is the problem with changing to new versions so damned offten cant they stop making so many half ass changes and stop messing with parts of the program that actually worked damnit!

Newsflash for you: Not every VoIP enabled service uses VIVOX. Far more often, the problem is with the VIVOX servers - which Linden Lab nor any TPV Dev team control.

Ahh, seems the problem for me personally was that perhaps a month ago or so, something seems to have flipped my FSLinuxEnableWin32VoiceProxy debug setting from true to false. flipped it back to get voice working again. . . not that I'll ever use it. 🤮 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Below is from a notecard I made detailing how setup SLVoice in Linux without Wine Ubuntu 21.04 and Mint 20.2 (older versions will work also) **Start non wine installation** 1) sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 2) Download https://www.dropbox.com/s/ua11xl2yimf0iox/libortp9_3.6.1-3build1_i386.deb?dl=0 3) download https://www.dropbox.com/s/ejhd0traot4pusa/libortp-dev_3.6.1-3build1_i386.deb?dl=0 **if you do not trust the packages in my dropbox you are free to search for them on your own (libortp is not in the Ubuntu repositories for newer versions) ** 4) sudo dpkg -i libortp9_3.6.1-3build1_i386.deb **fail but fine** 5) sudo dpkg -i libortp-dev_3.6.1-3build1_i386.deb **fail again but fine** 6) sudo apt install -f **fix broken dependencies** 7) sudo apt install lib32z1 libidn11:i386 libuuid1:i386 libsndfile1:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libpulse0:i386 😎 run firestorm and enjoy!

I thought your guide was without wine? Edit: Actually seems like it's not neccesarily version problems but finding these weird libraries. interesting. Out of curiosity where are you getting your libvivoxsdk.so libvivoxplatform.so and libvivoxoal.so.1 from?

Guide is for without Wine but many people have it installed anyways but would like to use native Linux for voice. Apt is not going to install an older version on top of a newer unless you chose to force it. Those native Linux binaries come from Firestorms third party repository but they originate from LL when they last supported Linux. http://3p.firestormviewer.org/slvoice-3.2.0002.10426.298329-linux-20160717.tar.bz2 Edited August 29, 2021 by MarissaOrloff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks very much for posting this ! It was absolutely essential to get SLVoice working with Debian 11 and without the Wine-solution. Kudos for posting !!

Mircea Lobo Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Hello. I am having the same problem. I looked at this thread and it provides pieces of information but I still don't know how to fix it. In my case I'm using Linux (Manjaro KDE) and tried both Kokua and Firestorm, native x64 versions as there's no need to emulate a Windows viewer on WINE when that exists. Looking at the log I can see the error mentioned above: 2021-12-27T16:05:27Z INFO #Voice# newview/winevoicevivox.cpp(616) LLVivoxVoiceClient::userAuthorized : name "mircea_lobo" , ID b0186c1c-e2d9-44a5-a895-760b42195974 The binary "bin/SLVoice" is present so I'm not sure what I might be missing. Do I also need to put the binary provided above in there? Anything else after that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linux native is 32 bit only. Win you have a choice or 32 of 64 bit. marissa@marissa-G901:~/Downloads/Phoenix_FirestormOS-MarissaCustomBuildCLANGAVX2FMOD_x86_64_6.5.2.65509/bin$ file SLVoice SLVoice: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, not stripped marissa@marissa-G901:~/Downloads/Phoenix_FirestormOS-MarissaCustomBuildCLANGAVX2FMOD_x86_64_6.5.2.65509/bin/win32$ file SLVoice.exe SLVoice.exe: PE32 executable (GUI) Intel 80386 (stripped to external PDB), for MS Windowsmarissa@marissa-G901:~/Downloads/Phoenix_FirestormOS-MarissaCustomBuildCLANGAVX2FMOD_x86_64_6.5.2.65509/bin/win64$ file SLVoice.exe SLVoice.exe: PE32+ executable (GUI) x86-64 (stripped to external PDB), for MS Windows Edited December 30, 2021 by MarissaOrloff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4gunny1 Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I have been able to reacquire voice up to 4 x I, am however not using Linux. I lost voice and my dot over my head on Dec 30th. I have spent over 6 plus hours messing with this isue. # 1. Attempt as follows go to a firestorm sandbox ---- > http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Firestorm Sandbox/157/126/2702 # 2. Avatar > Prefrences > Sound & Media > Sounds > Output Device > May have to change to either " Default " or Whatever your headset is as listed. Example " Turtle Beach". # 3. Avatar > Preferences > Sound & Media > Voice > Audo Device Settings > Input & Output > May need to change to either Default or Whatever your headset is as listed. Example " Turtle Beach". #4. Avatar > Preferences > Sound & Media > Voice > Enable Voice # 5 . Solution # 2 and # 3 will have to be done either way by swapping Default to Headset or back again. I have been able reverify this solution twice so far today and I, do get voice back. Theory -------> Output Device Bugged ?. Theory -------> Vivrox Issue ?. All Errors that I, have noticed are all Vivrox Error Coding. Please verify if solution has worked for you. Note # Temporary Fix, may have to re-repeat the solution.
