No startup sounds with latest PinballX ver 6.58

[slydog43]

as the title states, I have not startup sounds with this version.  I have tried it on multiple machines, no sounds play.  This is when installing onto of an older version if that helps.  Thanks

[Draco1962]

I am sure someone will be glad to help.

Help us help you by attaching copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files (no copy and paste of contents, please) when reporting an issue. 

Thanks!

to be clear it works on same instance with older version??

[Mike_da_Spike]

I tested, and I have launch sounds with the latest Version 6.58.
The only thing I noticed @Tom Speirs is that when playing a table and exiting, it will not play the table sound at that moment.
If I switch to another table, it works. To be honest, I never noticed this before, so maybe it has been this way for a longer time.

[Tom Speirs]

i think the op is referring to startup sounds not launch?

You must be right. I just use the original startup sounds, and that's still working for me. I hope @slydog43can give more info

[Tom Speirs]

i just tested. i can confirm its working fine for me too.

note: There is a setting to turn it on and off.

Having copies of the requested support files would help to determine if the setting is disabled, right?

I will buy a few beers to anyone who can figure this out!!!

[Tom Speirs]

you are supposed to attach the files buddy... Hard to search or test it without an actual file..

However, searching the entire web page in my browser shows you have it enabled.

Only thing i am aware of is table browsing sounds override the startup sound.
