Bug #418
Music Volum Bug with DirectSound 8
100%
Description
Like Danij told me I report here a kind of bug I experinced.
The Music Volum in Heretic does not change by what ever volum I set in Control Panel. You hear always full volum, by using the DirectSound 8 driver. That kind of bug does only affect the Music volume sinces sound volum can get changed.
Using DirectSound 6 Compatible does this error not appear.
Using Aureal A3D does the volum for the music work correctly, but there is no sound anymore at all for my PC
I experinced this in the Windows version of Doomsday 1.9.5.1
I guess this bug will appear in Hexen and Doom as well, but I haven't check it there yet.

The bug also affects Doom on my (vanilla) computer with:
Windows XP,
DirectX 9
Doomsday 1.9.0.beta5.1
Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS sound-card
Setting the sound effects volume works perfectly OK, and it's only the music volume that suffers from this bug. Regrettably, it makes the program completely unusable, so I hope this is bug has top-priority on the to-do list.
