Hi everyone,First, this is my first post here and proud to be a PMDG MD-11 captain :( Second, the problem that i have is with its sound .. let me explain this:When i start the plane in cold & dark mode .. and starting-up everything .. the APU sound is not recognized untill i change the view and back again to the cockpit .. some time it needs to "sound off" by clicking Q button.same with air flow .. engines .. etc .. so, what shall i do? so that i can fix this sound issue .. and keep my speakers updates with the instant sounds and alerts .. without the need to change the view mode or just clicking Q.Regards,Abdullah Al-Ghamdi

Hi Abdullah,I presume you are using the FSX version? This is a known issue with certain types of soundcards and it also affects other aircraft apart from the PMDG ones - at this time no one knows what is the cause - it even happens to me! Still the best solution is to press the "Q" button twice to reset the sounds to normal operation.

Many thx Armen for your reply .. yah i'm a FSX user .. and i use a CREATIVE SOUND CARD .. it seems that the double "Q" way is the helpful one at least untill some one figures out whats wrong .. hopefully it will be you :( now, is there any recommended Sound Card? :( Regards,
