Loss of sound mid-gameplay #214

Open Dutchman101 opened 6 years ago

Hi,

I have encountered a random bug on every gameplay session, that causes game sound to be lost entirely at a random moment during gameplay. For me, it's barely possible to play ACR for a few minutes without losing sound, which makes this a very disruptive issue. ACR needs to be restarted in order to regain sound, because there's no way to restore it when it happens.

Not sure if it's relevant, (it may help) but knowing that once it happened right when firing a first akimbo pistol shot moments after picking it up; the sound shut immediately, I don't think the shot was ever to be heard.

From your other issue report (#213), you seem to be using Windows 7 or later.

Are you using an installation of OpenAL (oalinst.dll) or openal32.dll in bin_win32? I found it sometimes happens with the system installation, but the .dll works without issues for me.
