Audio Bug
So, recently I installed this game to feed a nostalgia itch but there seems to be a bug where only some of the sound effects play for weapons, etc.
An example would be the Kol battleship where the beam firing sounds are present but not the gauss or autocannon sounds.
This is true of all the factions various ships.
It's proven to be quite frustrating to ascertain the cause.
It happens on multiple installs across several pc's with different hardware setups.
I have tried every sound configuration I can in windows in an attempt to resolve it, all to no avail.
If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears.. or, eye's in this case.
