Help! Annoying problem with VC switch sounds!

Featured Replies

Hi.I was wondering if anyone could offer help with regard to a particularly annoying problem that I have.When using Marcel Kuhnt's wonderful BN-2 Islander, I get two sounds simultaneously occuring when I click on switches on the 2D panel, or in the VC. A 'normal' click, and a ridiculous 'windows warning' type 'dungk'...(dungk is the the only way I can describe it!). I have played EVERY sound in the sound folder, and this 'dungk' sound is not any of them (the normal click is there though). I replaced Marcel's panel with an FS2002 one, which works very well, and in doing so discovered something interesting pertaining to this annoying sound. I hadn't copied Marcel's VC cfg entries into the new panel.cfg, so when I loaded up the Islander for the first time with the new panel, the VC gauges were missing. When I clicked on switches on the 2D panel, I just go the normal click, not the horrible 'dungk' sound. In VC (albeit with no gauges!), I could click on switches that were present, and got no sound...not the click, nor the 'dungk'. I was confused, but copied the VC gauge entries into the new panel.cfg, and loaded up. The normal click of course remained, but the dungk was back in 2D mode, and when clicking on switches in the VC (which now had the gauges present), I got just the dungk sound.What gives?! Can anyone help? (If you can even make sense of my post!)Best regards,Al.

Hi,If you have windows sound scheme enabled why don't you go into control panel>sounds and audio devices>sounds and under sound schemes, pick "no sounds" and see if that eliminates your "dungk" sound.Ed

Many thanks for that Ed. It certainly solved the problem. I can't hear the click sound in the VC, but I can live with that! Can't think for the life of me why it would have been making that noise in the first place though?!Thanks again.
