Are you sure you are playing in version 31.12? This was fixed in 31.11.

Yes, I am 100% sure. It is 31.12

It was not fixed apparently. :(

Hey Baughn, mind taking a look at this? It sounds like a repeat of 0002616.

Do you have a 32-bit libopenal installed anywhere? If so, where?

I get the same on openSuSE 11.3 32-bit:

$ rpm -qa libopenal\*
libopenal1-soft-1.12.854-1.11.i586
libopenal0-soft-1.12.854-7.1.i586

$ rpm -qal libopenal\*
/usr/lib/libopenal.so.1
/usr/lib/libopenal.so.1.12.854
/usr/lib/libopenal.so.0

Same problem, openSUSE 11.3 64-bit, I don't remember what exact version it broke in (possibly was never working on the official Linux release) but I can confirm for 0.31.12 and 0.31.13.

$ rpm -qa libopenal\*
libopenal1-soft-32bit-1.12.854-1.11.x86_64
libopenal0-soft-1.12.854-1.11.x86_64
libopenal0-soft-32bit-1.12.854-1.11.x86_64
libopenal1-soft-1.12.854-1.11.x86_64

$ rpm -qal libopenal\*
/usr/lib/libopenal.so.1
/usr/lib/libopenal.so.1.12.854
/usr/lib64/libopenal.so.0
/usr/lib/libopenal.so.0
/usr/lib64/libopenal.so.1
/usr/lib64/libopenal.so.1.12.854

The problem seems to be that DF will only accept the file named libsndfile.so, not libsndfile.so.1 or libsndfile.so.0.21. If you make libsndfile.so a symbolic link to an existing file, then run ldconfig, it fixes the problem. Same applies for libopenal

Confirming this bug is still open in 0.40.01. Khym Chanur's workaround works; here's the relevant commands for Debian wheezy:

    sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libsndfile.so.1 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libsndfile.so
    sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libopenal.so.1 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libopenal.so
    sudo ldconfig

Mint 15 (based on Ubuntu 13.04) 32 bit here, and I solved this with the command below, which should install 3 things from Ubuntu's repo

$ sudo apt-get install libopenal*

Confirming Khym Chanur's resolution, as leoboiko instructed, on Mint 17 x64. Prior to this I installed devpackages for openal and snd, tested granite's solution without success, created symlinks in /usr/lib32. None of these solved it, but in combination with Khym Chanur it did work.

Reminder sent to: Toady One

It seems that a patch from https://github.com/Baughn/Dwarf-Fortress--libgraphics-/pull/37/files [^] never made it into DF's libgraphics.

The patch doesn't seem to work for my Ubuntu, but perhaps it will for somebody else.

I can add to this, I had to add "libsdl-ttf2.0-0" to Ubuntu 14.04 32b for DF 40.20 to work and "libopenal-dev" to get rid of this OpenAL problem and enable game music. No name problems occurred.
