Error when opening a device with multiple devices about openal-soft HOT 4 CLOSED

What version of OpenAL Soft are you using? The latest Git version, 1.23.1, or an earlier release? I don't know about that debug assertion, I would need to see a backtrace with line numbers.

For the OpenAL errors, you can't call alGetError() before setting a current context with alcMakeContextCurrent. Although for calls like alcOpenDevice, alcGetString, and alcCreateContext (basically any alc function), you should actually call alcGetError with the same device handle to get the error code. The alGetError function returns error values from al (non-alc) calls on the current context, but it can't get a context's error without a current context so returns AL_INVALID_OPERATION (it can't do the requested operation).

Appreciate the help with the error checking!

Yes, this is in the latest Git version (1.23.1) but I also tried it with an earlier version and got the same debug assertion.

There's the call stack for reference:

It starts from:
ALCcontext* context = alcCreateContext(device, nullptr);

and ends at:

The assertion should be fixed with commit 94a6230 now.

Yep, that has fixed it. Thanks for the help!
