Enabling Soundblaster support makes the game freeze as soon as you pick up your weapon for the first time. Without sound, the game runs fine.
Which could be the problem?

It could be any number of things. If you didn't install the game properly, the game could be looking for its music data in a place where the data does not exist. Or it could simply be that the game's setup program is not configured to look for the SoundBlaster card on the right IRQ. (The DOSBox SoundBlaster uses IRQ 7 by default.)

How are you mounting your folders? And did you install the game from its original installation media?

Caused by an unimplemented DSP command. Seems to work (and sound) OK with this patch.
