No Sound in different system and platform

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug In Ubuntu 20.04 Fresh install, some people (including me) experiencing no sound issue.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install Ubuntu 20.04 fresh from download
  2. Install Pycharm from snap
    sudo snap install pycharm-community --classic
    
  3. Install Waifu Motifator from file > settings > Plugins > search for Waifu Motivator > install it
  4. Restart Pycharm
  5. press Alt + M with intention to motivate your self
  6. Voila ! No Sound 😦

Expected behavior

Waifu Motivator should play the sound correctly and accordingly.

Screenshots

There is no picture of a sound

Platform (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Linux 5.4.0-52-generic - Ubuntu 20.04 focal
  • IDE Pycharm - Community
  • IDE Version 2020.2.3 0- Build #PC-202.7660.27
  • Version WMP 1.3

Additional context

I’m no linux master but i suppose it’s because WMP (or pycharm, i dunno) play the sound file with FFmpeg. turns out my(or all) Ubuntu 20.04 install don’t come with FFmpeg in it. So I’m Successfully Fixed it by

  1. installing FFmpeg with:
    sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
    
  2. And i make sure i have the sound asset.
    find ~/.config/JetBrains/PyCharmCE2020.2/waifuMotivationAssets/audible/
    
  3. try to play one of the sound
    cd ~/.config/JetBrains/PyCharmCE2020.2/waifuMotivationAssets/audible/celebration/
    ffplay -nodisp -autoexit good_job.wav
    
  4. if the sound played successfully, restart Pycharm
  5. Alt + M to motivate yourself

I’m leaning into the former solution so when we allowed users to use their own package, WMP is not limited to one sound format.

That sounds like the latter solution rather than the former solution. Unless I missed something. (Former == 1st, Latter == 2nd, at least that’s how I think it works)
