Sound not playing at all with no error

[TheMemeSniper]

I am trying to use the playsound module with the following code and filesystem:

playsound.playsound("assets/music/maintheme.mp3",False)

Development
     Nodebreach - main.py
          assets
               music
                    maintheme.mp3

Yet when I execute main.py, no sound plays and no error appears.

I have already installed Gstreamer through apt.

I am having this issue on my Arch installation. I had to comment out any usage of the playsound module to get the rest of my code working again.

hm, maybe i should change it to just not playing considering Crostini uses a Debian image

Maybe I have a similar issue, I have to wait a few seconds for the sound playing. And I have to add ./ to the path of the sound file.
