Does anyone else have the problem when you "alt-tab" out of counterstrike (or any other half life mod), and then go back into you, you lose all sound? Anyone know how to fix this?

Escape out of the game...go back one menu by clicking the done button.

Then alt+tab and do your thing (the resolution may not change from the menu one) and then alt+tab back. Sometimes I have trouble alt+tab back into the game and I have to go into task manager and double click on it.

This should be retitled Half-life problem as it is with all hl online games. Simply press escape then return back to the game, you should get your sound back, or keep trying. Or you can retry.

There is also a console command which resets the sounds so it'll work again. I forgot the command, but surely someone at AT will know.
