Comment (by raziel-):

 Ok, so this is a strange one

 I just played around with the settings, trying different things.

 I tried <default>...and now it works!? Huh???

 I get an error message on start of the game saying;
 The selected audio device 'MT-32 Emulator' cannot be used. See log file
 for more information. Attempting tofall back to the next available
 device...
 This message comes two times if i lick the first one away.

 Now, further on i tried all the audio devices to see which one make it
 work...and they ALL do (well, nearly)...strange.

 I tried
 CAMD (my default normally, which refuses to play any sound with this
 particular game only)
 MT-32 Emulator (see above)

 Working
 AdLib Emulator (with lower quality and NOT through my MIDI device)

 Working with using my MIDI device (which is even stranger and that
 shouldn't be the case)
 PC Speaker Emulator (probably the device the MT-32 Emulator mentioned
 above picks up)
 IBM PC Speaker Emulator
 Creative Music System Emulator
 Amiga Audio Emulator
 Apple II GS Emulator (even though it clearly reads out NOT IMPLEMENTED)
 FM-Towns Audio
 PC-98 Audio


 ...


 So...help???
