Then installed a Flatpak app. When trying start the app (from command line) get the error Failed to load "canberra-gtk-module" The error is application specific - i.e. other flatpak apps work fine. All appropriate caberra gtk libraries are installed. Have been successful installing and running this app on other Ubuntu based systems, only have the problem with Zorin. Have tested on ZorinOS 15.1 core and Ultimate with same result.
Canberra-gtk-module is no longer being developed or supported as it is a GTK2 Module. It is considered deprecated.
Most apps that give that warning still work just fine and you only see that warning if you start it from terminal.
There is a gtk3 version: canberra-gtk3-module - But your warning did not specify this.
Also, please check if the Flatpak version you installed is not 32bit version.
Let's install the modules (both) and see if that helps, but if it does not, there may be another cause for Flatpak not running.
- Code:
sudo apt-get install libcanberra-gtk-module libcanberra-gtk3-module
If Flatpak is 32bit:
- Code:
sudo apt-get install libcanberra-gtk-module:i386
There are other options; you could unset your gtk modules environment variable. Or, as Swarfendor suggested, use a package manager that checks for all dependencies. And YES, check with Swarfendors advice to be sure you are not logged into Wayland. Wayout, more like. Nothing works on Wayland except for all the things that don't work. And even those don't work.
