There is a common sound problem with the Sound Blaster Live 5.1 sound cards. There is massive skipping, and the scenarios of the skipping include:
1.) During the Previously screen and graphic novels. The sound will stutter like mad.
2.) During ingame cutscenes, the sound will skip, but the subtitles and the animation/timing of it will stay the same.
3.) Ingame, entire lines will get skipped over, also skipping over the subtitles.
Now, there have been multiple solutions for this, but none have worked for me, and people I've polled on, asking if they had the same problem.
I set my acceleration to Basic, doesn't work. Update my drivers, doesn't work. Disable Multichannel Audio and EAX within MP2 options, same. Set speakers for 2 Channel instead of 4, or 5.1, once again, doesn't work. Try a combination of all this, doesn't work.
My sound is fine for every other game, and its the same for the people I've asked. Only MP2 has given sound problems with the SB Live 5.1 card. Is it possible to include a fix for this in the next patch, along with the Allocation Errors? This really dampers on the enjoyment of the game, seeing as the story is one of the key parts. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
Thank you
