I have an old 486 that has had a Jazz 16 (AKA PAS16) in it for years. All my DOS games had working sound. I recently turned on this machine to play DOOM, and had no sound. All my other games work, every one, except DOOM, and anything DOOM-engine based, like Hexen. Quake works, but of course Quake is a slideshow on a 486. I can't find any game that doesn't work, except for DOOM. This is really odd, since I think it used to work, since I don't remember having anything other than a PAS in this machine. I fixed the problem by putting in an old SB16 I had laying around, but its kind of just irritating the heck out of my that for no reason sound on one game stopped working on one sound card.
Does DOOM have known sound card compatibility issues? I've googled, and I get many people claiming PAS16 works fine with DOOM, and handful saying they never got it work.
The only thing I can think of is a couple years back I changed from 486-100 to 486-133, and it may have actually been that long since I've fired up DOOM.
