I am trying to get flathub runescape to have sound. flatpak seems "sandboxed" with regard to sound. Where I should see "audio volume" "runescape" and a sliding bar, I am seeing only "no applications playing or recording audio". All users are members of flatpak group. Is there some other package I am meant to install to allow flatpak access to the host machine's speaker - or - some other permission I am meant to set to allow sound to be accessed? I have also ensured there is a line in the manifest.json file under "finish-args" with "--socket=pulseaudio".
opensuse 15.3
this is what I do...
REMOVE RS:
flatpak uninstall flathub com.jagex.RuneScape
remove the following r/s dirs:
rm -rf /home/weedmic/.var/app/com.jagex.RuneScape/Jagex/RuneScape
rm -rf /home/weedmic/Jagex/RuneScape/
REMOVE FLATPAK:
remove flatpak from yast (4 items - keep xdg-desktop-portal)
install newest nvidia driver
reboot
ensure sound is functional
INSTALL FLAPAK: (from these instructions: https://flatpak.org/setup/openSUSE)
sudo zypper install flatpak
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
add users to flatpak group
INSTALL RS FM FLATHUB:
flatpak install flathub com.jagex.RuneScape
NOTE: stick around need to login as root at least 1 time
(flatpak run com.jagex.RuneScape)
NOTE: if it is "building cache" wait in lobby until done (huge file)
The system-wide data (runtimes, applications and configuration) are located in .../var/lib/flatpak/, and the per-user data is in $HOME/.local/share/flatpak/
actual - /var/lib/flatpak/app/com.jagex.RuneScape/current/abc.../files>
