Simple background sound effect playback

[Jacob Kruger]

The code returns no errors, and can set the volume levels, so the objects are being instantiated, etc., but, just no sound being output.

Might have to do with SDL not being installed or something, and it's being covered by error bypassing or something - will check out those links in case.

Thanks

  The docs say: "The mixer module is optional and depends on SDL_mixer. Your program should test that pygame.mixer is available and intialized before using it." [1]


  Have you tried checking that SDL_mixer is installed and pygame.mixer is available? If that doesn't solve the problem, you could try the pygame mailing list or one of the other options from the wiki. Unfortunately I don't have the experience to be able to recommend any specific library.
