Re: Musescore refuses to play sound

I am having the same problem, and the instructions on Musescore's website are actually useless on Linux. None of the settings and/or remedies they suggest applies. Does anyone have other suggestions?

Re: Musescore refuses to play sound

Actually, I found the solution in an old post on Musescore site: all I had to do was deleting the file .asoundrc from my home directory. Hopefully this will not mess up things later.
