Same here.

The soundboard needs to be started from within the source directory, that helped in my case.

[lnjX]

Helpful error message might be nice, but I guess this can be closed.

Why printing an error message if this is a bug that can be fixed? I think it should rather be fixed than closed, but I'm not a Go guy...

Well technically it was never broken. You just need to start it in the correct working directory. I don't see how this could be fixed, but as @lnjX said, an error on the command line would be helpful to understand what is going on.

A chdir() to the correct directory would be a hacky fix, but would avoid printing an error message for a bug that can definitely be fixed. But I technically see no reason why cwd actually plays an role.

Take another example: If I'd like to start firefox, I don't want 'cd /usr/bin' every time I'd like to start it.

[lnjX]

Well okay that's actually right, it could just search for the files using a relative path from the binary. However a proper error message would be better than nothing for now.
