The sound skips when there's a pause between battles after a ship is destroyed and at the end of most conversations. But it's random, as it doesn't happen all the time but just enough to be annoying. I read this might be a timing issue.

Try 1.1.6.0 which was released just about the same time that you posted your inquiry. What you describe sounds like an audio timing issue that has was patched.

[DEFIANT]

Nope, the sound hiccup is still there. But doesn't to seem as bad as before.

[Johnny]

Bah. Perhaps it's an issue in the core, then.

[Viktor]

Are these issues in 4do versions 1.1.4.x/1.1.3.x ?

[DEFIANT]

I switched to windows 7 and now the sound is working? Any thoughts?

[Johnny]

Nope! Other than: hooray! It's fixed!
