When playing Splinter Cell, I suddenly and randomly lose all the background audio. I.E. the music, the audible "OPSAT" updates from HQ and the voices of the enemies talking. I still have the sound effects, ie. shooting, falling, breaking stuff, etc.

This happens with the unpatched and patched versions of the game. I have no audio probs with any other game.

I tried it with the 3D Sound enabled and disabled...makes no diff.

Rig is in sig, but for expediency's sake, NF2 rig, using onboard, 2 channel sound.
