![]() Once the game is running, go back into the Quick Menu. Open RetroArch, and go to the Quick Menu. It took me a while to figure things out, but this is the way I did it: Sorry for the delay in responding, but I do not visit Reddit frequently. If anyone is interested in testing this further, I am willing to provide a link to the VM. I do not know if this could lead to a universal 'fix' for the issue, but maybe it will lead to a better understanding of what is causing it. Somehow, just launching and running Simon the Sorcerer 4 has done something within the Windows XP VM to resolve the sound issue, to the extent that I can run another game with the sound working normally, but I have no idea why this is. Again, system OS sounds are still screwed up, but within those two games it is fine. I did not have to launch Simon the Sorcerer 4 for the audio in Wing Commander IV to work. ![]() I again re-booted the VM and re-launched just to be sure, and yes, still working fine. Lastly, keeping Simon the Sorcerer 4 installed, I installed a fresh copy of Wing Commander IV in the now 'working' VM.Īmazingly, the sound now works perfectly in that game too. Back into the Simon the Sorcerer 4 copy of the VM and all was still working. ![]() In there, the crackling and distortion was still an issue. To make sure nothing in Windows 11 was affecting this in any way, I booted a copy of the same Windows XP VM in which I had installed Wing Commander IV. are still crackling and breaking up, but in-game the issue is avoided. Strangely, the system sounds such as "Windows login" etc. ![]() I shutdown the VM and booted fresh, and again, the sound in that game was working perfectly. When I ran it, I realized that the sound was working normally, which was a great surprise. Through trial and error, I took the same copy of the VM where I experience the audio distortion, and installed the game Simon the Sorcerer 4 Chaos Happens. I have used the same Windows XP SP3 virtual machine for years now, so I did not re-install Windows or do anything drastic. I have managed to tentatively/partially 'solve' this, to an extent, without needing to resort to concurrently running Windows XP in Virtual Box as described in my earlier post. ![]()
