.. but sorta reversed.
Rather than the standard Chord.wav it makes this sorta metallic whistling sound; it's actually quite a cool sound & I thought it was a feature, rather than a bug (
). It's a lot like a sonar pulse sound but with some static thrown in for good measure (
).
When I start up Winamp, it won't get passed the first second or two.. it'll sorta stutter with this whistling sound, continuously.. if I move the slider it'll move without a problem but give the same repetitive pulse-noise, just at the different place in the track.
When I start up Windows, it'll play the standard Start-up sound, but about halfway through the warbling/sonar sound will take over.
But this is the really queer thing: when the system is under load, it's totally not an issue - everything plays perfectly without complaint. The reason I woulnd't have noticed it before is that I've never run the system without it being under load; i.e., always had the Genome@home client running in the background.
I've tried replacing the drivers for the sound card as well.. no difference. It does it both for me & the admin logon. It is slightly less serious with the new drivers but still unusable.
