The sound of the salvager beam gets constantly stuck so it's always repeating... Annoying and this bug has been here for years. The only way to fix it is turn off audio, turn it back on.

And yes, EVE does have sound. I like my sound, just not the constant whine of the salvager when the module is actually turned off.

There is a known issue with the salvaging sound effect looping if you are using a Asus Xonar soundcard and have 'GX' mode enabled. If you are using such a card can you try disabling 'GX' mode in the sound card control panel and see if the noise continues to loop.

If you are not using such a card then please submit a bug report. Thanks.

Confirming this is not only for a specific sound card, in a specific mode.

But this coming from the 'sound guys' that claimed they only introduced a single sound into the latest Duality client, until a bug with another new sound they put in was found, then they fessed up to having created that one, and maybe another one. Really guys, is it that hard?
