No digitized sound

uly · July 28th, 2007

For some reason, the digitized sound in some of the games (Azito 3, Growlanser, Genso Suikoden among others) aren't playing. By digitized sound, I mean things like human voices, some music and sound in full-motion videos. In all cases the game works fine otherwise, with music and sound effects playing properly.

I am using ePSXe 1.6 with Pete's D3D 1.76, P.E.Op.S. DSound 1.9, and P.E.Op.S. CDR 1.4. The strange thing, though, is that this problem does not occur with PSXeven with exactly the same plugins setup, so I don't think it's a plugin issue. I've also tried Andy's SPU with the same result.

And in case you're wondering, it's not a CDDA issue, since none of the games I tested use CDDA.

Any idea how I could fix this?

Have you tried the Eternal SPU plugin?

I don't know a shot in the dark, but have you enabled XA Sound?

Thanks for the responses.

Well, I don't quite know what fixed the problem, but I cleared the registry for ePSXe and things worked afterwards. If I find a way to reproduce the problem I'll post back.
