Soundpool sample not ready

Question

I have a .wav file that I\'d like to use across my game, currently I am loading the sound in onCreate() of each activity in the game.

Answer 1

This sounds crazy, but don't play sounds right away. Give your app a couple of seconds to initialize the SoundPool. In my app, this was exactly the issue; I added a fake "loading" screen of ~3 seconds, and then everything worked. (I didn't even need to preload the sounds.)
