Hmm okay maybe this means that mpxplay without -bp does not get the right notification that the buffer runs empty, could be some IRQ or DMA configuration issue. With the -bp mode, I guess that mpxplay just refills the buffer on every timer tick, at least 18 times per second, so it stays filled :-). > Now it enters the VIA mode even if it's not specified in > commandline options, but I remember when I was playing with > BIOS settings the were configurations when this mode had to be > forced [with -scs VIA ...] it does detect VIA if I use -sct ... > > Does the "viaaudio" tool help with that volume setting problem? > No, not at all.

I would assume it is one because SBPro mode behaves as if everything works - so it probably sends the data somewhere but you do not hear anything, typical for a volume setting or muting problem. Unfortunately I have no idea what else beyond viaaudio and a normal volume or mixer control tool you could use. And if SBPro mode is silent in mpxplay then I guess it is also silent in your DOS games...
