QSoundEffect problem :/

Walux

Hi Qt Community ,

So in my program , i have 1 QSound and 1 QSoundEffect that is configured in a certain volume .My QSoundEffect is brief , but the other QSound is used for background theme , the problem is when the brief sound is activated , it imposes its volume level on myother background sound , causing it to be almost muted.

Any ideas :) ?
I'll be grateful for your help.

I'm gonna lean out of the window a bit here.... Why not using QSoundEffect::setVolume() to lower the volume of the sound effect?
Maybe I'm misunderstanding the problem... feel free to yell at me.

Hhhh , don't feel like yelling right now :b
But yeah , i don't think you understood clearly.

The problem in other terms is visible in these small lines of code :

    backgroundTheme = new QSound("://sounds/Background.wav",this);
    backgroundTheme->setLoops(QSound::Infinite);
    backgroundTheme->play();

    correctAnswer.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("://sounds/Correct Answer.wav"));
    correctAnswer.setVolume(0.05);

As you can see , the QSoundEffect is set to low volume (because it's very loud) , while the QSound is in full volume , the problem is when i run the program , the background music is working just fine , but when the QSoundEffect plays , the background music's volume gets low (i think its volume got set to my QSoundEffect's volume)

Any ideas how to fix that :) ?
I'm afraid the answer can be really obvious ^^'

Hi,

Take a look at this thread. Unless I'm mistaken it's still relevant for what you are experiencing.
