I cannot reproduce the issue I'm afraid, everything works well on my end off a fresh install of pychess. On 8 May 2015 at 08:23, Jan Alexander Steffens wrote:

Hello, all. Does anyone play chess? PyChess is great and seems mostly free of bugs now. There is one, glaring exception, but it could be specific to Arch.

Sound effects do not play, and the sound files the pychess package installs to /usr/share/pychess/sounds do not appear in the sound selection

Should the problem be reported upstream?

Have you installed the gstreamer0.10-plugins?

Thanks for the reply. Could you please share output for the following command? Jan's response makes me wonder whether my system lacks an undocumented dependency. pacman -Q | grep 'gst.*plug'

I can find this package neither with $( pkgfile -ir 'gst.*plug' ) nor by searching the package database online. Here is what I do have installed:

■ pacman -Q | grep 'gst.*plug' gst-plugins-bad 1.4.5-2 gst-plugins-base 1.4.5-1 gst-plugins-base-libs 1.4.5-1 gst-plugins-good 1.4.5-2

Though it seems the pychess package lists none of these as relevant. Perhaps this is a packaging error?

■ pacman -Qi pychess Name : pychess Version : 0.10.1-4 Depends On : gnome-icon-theme python2-rsvg pygtksourceview2 gstreamer0.10-python desktop-file-utils Optional Deps : None

That may be because "gstreamer0.10-plugins" is a package group, not a package. :) It contains: gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins, gstreamer0.10-base-plugins, gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, gstreamer0.10-good-plugins, gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins -- Eli Schwartz
