this clone functionality , cloned priority, severity and others which aren't correct, fixed now.

Comment 2 Sergio Basto 2012-06-06 04:31:50 UTC
For the record , 
clean all coldwar_demo/lib and just link libopenal.so.0 to libopenal.so.1

cd lib
ln -s /usr/lib/libopenal.so.1 libopenal.so.0

sounds works !

so not a bug , it works.
