A couple of problems/solutions for problems I encountered using Ubuntu 12.04:

* It will crash right after start using NVIDIA drivers 310.19. Upgrade to the latest, I used 310.32.

* It does not work with plain ALSA, I only get sound after starting PulseAudio.

It will, put export SDL_AUDIODRIVER="alsa" in your .bashrc and relogin

If a problem is that easy to solve, I wonder why it doesn't get fixed by the developers. That way thousands of tech impaired users have to google and spend hours to solve this.

Because they built their copy of SDL wrong, plus they're building it instead of using the distro provided one.
