[mono-android] openal32.dll missing ?

[Danny]

Whenever I try to create a new audio context in monodroid, it falls over
telling me that openal32.dll is missing; which naturally doesn't make sense.

I can only assume i'm doing something wrong, but I've used OpenTK/OpenAL
before under windows and have managed just fine with similar code.

anyway here is the offending code:

    		public Audio()
		{
			if (Loaded == false)
			{
				Loaded = true;
				try
				{
					try {Console.WriteLine ("Current: " +
AudioContext.CurrentContext.ToString());} catch { Console.WriteLine ("no
current context"); }
					try {Console.WriteLine ("Default: " + AudioContext.DefaultDevice);}
catch { Console.WriteLine ("no default device"); }
					
					Context = new AudioContext();
					ValidContext = true; //we have a valid audio context!
				}
				catch (Exception ex)
				{
					Console.WriteLine ("Loading the audio context failed.");
					Console.WriteLine (ex.ToString ());
					Console.WriteLine (ex.Message);
					ValidContext = false; //Loading the audio context failed :(
				}
			}
		}

And here is the output:

Anyone have any ideas?
