<div dir="ltr">To answer the question in your title: Smalltalk is not "just a programming language," it's an authoring environment that happens to include a specific programming language. But the language is secondary, it's simply part of the user interface for the actual system, along with other tools. This does indeed set it apart from most other systems that are purely languages. <div><br></div><div>That system runs on a virtual machine, the Open Smalltalk VM, which on your system appears to be configured to use pulse audio by default. The VM is plugin based and can be configured to use alsa instead. I think the command line switch is -vm-sound-alsa but I don't have a linux machine in front of me right now, YMMV.</div><div><br></div><div><div>Vanessa</div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, May 26, 2022 at 3:56 AM tuxic via Cuis-dev <<a href="mailto:cuis-dev@lists.cuis.st">cuis-dev@lists.cuis.st</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>

I followed the steps given by Nicoa Mingotty here:<br>

and when starting Cuis Smalltalk I get this error message:<br>

<br>
I am using alsa as the audio interface of choice.<br>
How can I make Cuis Smalltalk to use this interface instead of<br>
pulseaudio?<br>
<br>
Cheers!<br>
