    No sound in minecraft v1.16.1, Error initializing SoundSystem

    I am new to ubuntu and this community and noob too XD. So I installed minecraft yesterday and its working great. I just have one problem that I cant hear any sound from speakers. I am using laptop so there isnt any external speaker. Here are the logs I took from latest.log in .minecraft/logs dir

    Code:
    [12:17:35] [main/ERROR]: Error starting SoundSystem. Turning off sounds & music
    java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to open OpenAL device

    Open this file(or create if not exists
    Code:
    /etc/openal/alsoft.conf
    and change drivers to this

    Should be "drivers=pulse"
    Also, check output of openal-info
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install openal-info
    openal-info
