I took and interest in fan-made AGI games and ways for running them in DOSBox without proprietary Sierra interpreter binaries. Out of the possible options, Sarien seemed most suitable, and indeed it works in DOSBox (I figured out how to add fan games to the sarien.ini config file), but I'm getting no sound at all, even though the menu says that sound is on. I've also tried the -E switch which supposedly selects sound emulation type.
There is no sound with either fan games (I tested Sarien most prominently with VooDoo Girl) or with official Sierra titles (I tried The Black Cauldron). In both cases, sound/music play if I run the original Sierra DOS interpreter binaries. Changing CPU cycles or CPU core does not help. I also tried legacy SB drivers and JEMMEX.
Tested this with 0.74-3 and an SVN build from January 2021. The debugger does not show any sound initialization, maybe it is not even implemented?
