Clojurians Log v2

I am trying to get audible notifications but I don't hear any sounds. My task looks like this:

(deftask build []
  (comp (notify "-a")
        (cljs)))

@clojureslack try (notify :audible true) instead of (notify "-a")

(task arguments are handled differently in in clojure code)

@alandipert That didn't seem to work.

does (boot (notify :audible true)) in a repl work?

or, at a command line, boot notify -a ?

boot notify -a at the command line just returns without appearing to do anything.

-v does send a notification.

hm, sounds like a problem with sound at some lower level then

are you able to play audio from cli with aplay?

and is sound otherwise working on your machine?

another thing to try is code like this in a repl, to see if you can get mp3s to play manually with javazoom https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/blob/master/boot/worker/src/boot/notify.clj#L18-L30

I can play mp3s with mpg123 and sound also works normally otherwise. I will look at the java code and see if I can get it to work

Curious. When I run that function it gives an error Cannot create AudioDevice

@alandipert I eventually found that I had no sound in any java apps. I think I was using a headless JDK. I switched to java-9-openjdk and reinstalled boot and I have sound now. Thank you for the help.
