I have the latest version (3.9beta5) which proudly boasts full Linux sound emulation (in fact it mentions RV 5 directly on their page). I have both $path and LD_LIBRARY_PATH set just right, and I used brandelf -t Linux (JIC). I get no error messages, just that video will not play, and sound is very staccato (doesn't play at all to be precise).
