Hello- Iā€™ve switched to using Fedora, kinda recently, and unfortunately, it has a bit of an issue regarding completely skipping playing certain audio files during Valveā€™s games. None of this causes any crashing, but can lead to a worse gaming experience, confusion, and the appearance of buggyness- and generally isnā€™t great. To work around this, please refer to the following steps, and all the gamesā€™ audio will then work perfectly.

You need to open your Terminal emulator, either from the usual application menu place, or by using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T, or sometimes itā€™s Super+T AND THEN type the following into it, entering your password when it prompts you.


sudo su
sudo setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1

Thatā€™s it. Your game will now function as intended, enjoy being able to hear the soundtracks, music, sound effects, etc! Especially ā€˜Still Aliveā€™, and the banger that Half-Life 2ā€™s soundtrack is, amongst others.

valve pls fix
