Hello, I have these two sound problems in dosbox.

1. Playing a game that uses pc speaker, sound is missing when pressing Alt-F12 for seconds.
2. DOSBox does not play CD tracks in Windows vista.
Windows media player outside dosbox plays the cd tracks.

Are they bugs of dosbox?
I am using vista 6000 and the latest clean cvs build.

hmm, I'm not well versed in Vista, but could you try running Dosbox with Admin rights to test it?

DOSBox does not play CD tracks in Windows vista

No CD-Audio on Vista?

I tested it under Windows XP on the same computer, and it worked fine. Tracks could be played with various media players under vista. I am just wondering if it is caused by SDL or DOSBox. Is there a CD Player program which uses SDL?
