Emulator won't display my Hello World app

[Shelby Swayze]

I can't find a solution to the emulator giving the following error message.

Executing tasks: [:app:assembleDebug]

7:25 AM    Emulator: dsound:

7:25 AM    Emulator: Could not initialize DirectSoundCapture

7:25 AM    Emulator: dsound: Reason: No sound

7:25 AM    Emulator: driver is available for use, or the given GUID is not a valid DirectSound device ID

7:25 AM    Emulator: dsound: Attempt to initialize voice without DirectSoundCapture object

7:25 AM    Emulator: dsound: Attempt to initialize voice without DirectSoundCapture object

7:25 AM    Emulator: audio: Failed to create voice `goldfish_audio_in'

7:25 AM    Emulator: C:\Users\Shelby\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator\qemu\windows-x86_64\qemu-system-i386.exe: warning: opening audio input failed

7:25 AM    Emulator: dsound: Attempt to initialize voice without DirectSoundCapture object

7:25 AM    Emulator: dsound: Attempt to initialize voice without DirectSoundCapture object

7:25 AM    Emulator: audio: Failed to create voice `adc'

Can someone point me in the right direction for my solution?

I have tried a setting change on my Windows 10 and within the AVD manager box. I'm still searching google and can't find a remedy.

So far it didn't work but I'll leave the code as you suggested for now. I had seen the stackoverflow thread, but only now got around to changing the code as you mentioned. By the way, I never had the resources tags and related lines but I added them to no avail. I still get errors:

Emulator: dsound: Could not initialize DirectSoundCapture

6:59 AM    Emulator: dsound: Reason: No sound driver is available for use, or the given GUID is not a valid DirectSound device ID

6:59 AM    Emulator: dsound: Attempt to initialize voice without DirectSoundCapture object

6:59 AM    Emulator: dsound: Attempt to initialize voice without DirectSoundCapture object

6:59 AM    Emulator: C:\Users\S

Since I never seemed to notice any benefit from adding the resources tags and related code, I have removed them. Still I have no ability to bring up my app on the emulator.
Here's my code before removing the resources code: (activity_main.xml)
