Question "Microphone wave in failure" message

When I play Pokemon Diamond on the DS emulator, sometimes a message pops up saying "microphone wave in failure" and crashes my game. I constantly have to save because of this, which is really annoying since my game also doesn't save properly. I have to delete the previous save file, save the game, then close the emulator in order for it to take (all the while hoping that I don't get my microphone wave error message.) Does anyone have any help for either of these problems?

Either disable the sound when you don't need to use the mic or check this thread.

You can't disable the sound in Pokemon, or else it will freeze every time you beat an opponent, because the Pokemon doesn't faint until it registers the death cry. You also never need the mic unless you get caught in a trap underground.

EDIT: I know how to use a mic. I don't know what actually makes the problem happen, because there's no microphone involved at all. It just crashes randomly, it seems.

2.6a solves this "disabling sound crashing" for Pokemon D&P. Although it seems some people are having problems with donating and getting 2.6a.

As for the crash, it is random for games that use microphone. It doesn't mean it will only happen when you have to use it. Unfortunatelly, there's nothing you can do, either keep enabling and disabling sound, or save and close the emulator from time to time.

the 2.6a still freezes at the end of a battle if you have disabled the sound, so it's not possible to play without it

That can't have anything to do with it, because I don't.

I also don't get what using media player has to do with it.

Weird, I tested that a few months ago and was able to finish a battle with sound turned off. But it does keep hanging...
