I was trying to run Descent II with Redbook CD audio on a custom Windows 95 system on PCem V17 with the Sound Blaster AWE32, but I didn't hear any CD music during gameplay. The CD audio worked while testing the sound during installation, but the game disabled the CD audio driver entirely. After I exited Descent II, and tried to run a generic audio CD from the .cue file, but nothing is coming out. After I rebooted the system, the CD audio worked fine until I ran Descent II again. Here are the specs.
