Sound isn't working anymore (it did in all previous versions)
That's what the Launcher says:

This just happened to me on the newest launcher with 1.6 PR
Im on Mac OSX 10.8.2 with Java version 7 update 25
This just happened to me today with the 1.6 pre-release. I have Mac OSX 10.8.4. So I guess this hasn't been fixed yet?
Have this same issue with new launcher (1.0.8) and 1.6.1 as reported in MCL-815
Win7 64b with 64b java SBLive4.1 running on kX driver
No more sound - worked fine before.
That's the workaround i already use.
But this is a workaround and not a fix, because i always have to switch the playback device and it's only stereo.
Before LWJGL got updated i had surround sound in minecraft (With the same hardware and drivers).
So it would be nice if the devs would forward this to LWJGL.
(This also happens with other games using LWJGL, so it would be nice if that could be fixed)
But there's one thing the minecraft developers could do for now:
Add an option to the launcher to select the audio device minecraft will use.
Just loaded up 1.8.2, this issue is random for me, sometimes the game load without sound, but a simple reload fixes it.
I found a fix that works for me. In the sound panel right click on your device and click "Configure Speakers". I had to change my device from "Surround" to "5.1 Surround".
I have had a similar problem, and I am unsure if it is the same problem. It was on 2.0.847, and the log can be found here: log. I am on Windows 10.
This might be a problem that only lwjgl can solve though. Or perhaps paulscode.com :/
