Looks like it is trying to open an already closed device.

ferdinand 17 Jan 2022:

However this might be related to the switch I have made from PulseAudio to Pipewire.
Do other linux users have this issue as well? Because it affects all versions of the game, including those known to work previously...

assumedpseudonym 17 Jan 2022:

Same issue here, and a longstanding one that dates back to the initial release of the soundtrack. I could have sworn I reported it back then, but apparently not…

relanat 17 Jan 2022:

I get this every game:

[33] MCI ERROR ProcessPlay MCIWndOpen [TranscendenceIntro.mp3]: Invalid MCI device ID. Use the ID returned when opening the MCI device.

Sometimes it starts with [34], not [33].

And an EP test was silent:

[33] MCI ERROR ProcessPlay MCIWndOpen [Collection\00910000\EP1 - 02 - Powers p0.mp3]: Invalid MCI device ID. Use the ID returned when opening the MCI device.

I normally have the music turned off so cannot comment on when it stopped working.

assumedpseudonym 2 Apr 2022:

I have something noteworthy to add here. I just tested running Transcendence’s Steam version (via Proton), and the music worked without any issue. Transcendence March played, then changed to something else in the intro screen, and a quick test in game had the music successfully change when attacked and when no longer under attack.

So to summarize, the standalone in Wine does not get music, but the Steam version via Proton does.

matz05 24 May 2022:

I have no music issues in Wine, but I use PulseAudio. Maybe it's a Pipewire thing?

wolfy 13 Dec 2024:

What about the standalone + proton?

assumedpseudonym 15 Dec 2024:

That didn’t work for me. Moreover, now I’m not getting music from the Steam version through Proton either,
