[2508.4][RG35XXSP] - snes9x Resume Game after closing lid fails

Version: 2508.4 Loose Goose (reproducible since 2508.3 Canadian Goose)

Description: After opening an SNES game, closing the lid, then starting MuOS with “Resume Game” function, RetroArch fails to load the auto save state, with the notification message “Failed to load state [game_name].state.auto“. This only happens the first time RetroArch tries to load the auto save state. From the second time on, the state loads successfully. So far, I’ve only noticed this behavior on the snes9x core, so I’m not sure if this happens on other cores.

System Settings:

  • RetroArch Config Freedom: Enabled
  • Device Startup: Resume Game
  • Sleep Function: Instant Shutdown

RetroArch Settings:

  • Sort Saves into Folders by Core Name: OFF
  • Sort Save States into Folders by Core Name: OFF
  • SaveRAM Autosave Interval: 10 seconds
  • Save State Compression: ON
  • Auto Save State: ON
  • Auto Load State: ON
  • Increment Save State Index Automatically: ON
  • Maximum Auto-Increment Save States to Keep: 10

Did you ever get this figured out?
