Could not locate OpenAL library

Hi all, I’ve been developing a game for a few months now, and so far everything has been going smoothly. This morning I opened up JMonkey to do some development, and when I went to run my game, the following error popped up:

[java]AL lib: MMDevApiOpenPlayback: Device init failed: 0x80070490
AL lib: MMDevApiOpenPlayback: Device init failed: 0x80070490

SEVERE: Failed to load audio library

I’ve never seen this before, and I didn’t change any of my projects dependencies. I ran an update in JMonkey to see if that would solve it, but to no avail. Any ideas?

It is failing to initialize your audio driver. Make sure sound is working on your system or disable audio if you don’t use it.
