Module audio 

Audio playback — AudioPlugin inserts AudioOutput as a resource, opening the default output device once at startup, exactly like crate::time::TimePlugin. App::new() already builds this in, so Res<AudioOutput> works without registering anything yourself.

No wasm32 support — the underlying rodio/cpal stack doesn’t build on wasm32-unknown-unknown at all. A known gap, not solved here.

Backend-agnostic, same as crate::time/crate::gamepad — nothing here depends on pebble::wgpu or any particular rendering backend. Sound needs no Asset/Handle/GPU pipeline — it’s not a GPU resource, and decoding it is a synchronous, one-shot call, not something worth an async pipeline (same reasoning as wgpu::gltf_loader::load_gltf).

Structs

AudioOutput

The audio output device — a resource, inserted by AudioPlugin.

AudioPlugin

Registers AudioOutput as a resource, opening the default output device once at startup.

PlayingSound

A sound actively playing, with volume/pause/stop control — returned by AudioOutput::play_controlled. Dropping this stops playback (the same RAII behavior as closing an audio stream elsewhere) — for “play it and don’t worry about the handle,” use AudioOutput::play/AudioOutput::play_looped instead, which don’t hand back anything to accidentally drop.

Sound

Decoded sound data, ready to play — cheap to clone (an Arc-backed sample buffer internally) and to play more than once or simultaneously. Plain data — the only way to construct one is SoundBuilder.

SoundBuilder

Builds a Sound by decoding an audio file. Fully decodes up front (not a streaming decoder) — fine for sound effects and short music clips; a very long track means a correspondingly large in-memory buffer.
