Thanks j0schi

I hope to find a solution of this, all webapp games or crosswalk games are crash in many tables.

There are a problem with chrome mobile with ogg files, Crash or not play sounds.

i have report an issue to google for this.

jep, i have read it.... but also there seem to be several issues with the sound in crosswalk... basically the whole sound thing lags on start of a layout + you cant controll music volume... it always plays at max vulume at crosswalk. and when you import music as sound it works, but the app takes 5 minutes to start O_o doesnt make sence....

hopefully things get sorted out soon. its very frustrating when you have your whole app ready and cant publish it because BASIC features dont work.

You're absolutely right.

Can't reproduce: your demo runs fine here on a Nexus 5 running Android 4.4.4 in both Chrome for Android (via preview over Wifi) and a Crosswalk build.

Since your bug report suggests having any audio present at all causes the crash, then I am sure we would have heard far more about this, because basically every game that exists would crash all the time in both Chrome and Crosswalk. As far as we are aware, most people's games are working just fine in both.

Perhaps this is an Android bug or an issue with certain device manufacturers, but I don't think it's a Construct 2 bug, so closing.

Ok thanks Ashley

I had the same problem with Android 4.2.2, when using the first Android build option. I then changed and used the old build method, the one in the second row, and I was able to run the game with sound.
