    Yes, the sound bug, all sounds that your client would have loaded while you were alt tabbed all compound and explode at once when you alt tab back in. At max volume.

    Been there, been deafened, been reported, been added to the list of things UWE needs to fix in engine code. My guess is Client.ResetSoundSystem() needs to be called on tab in

    Cheers, did do a search but couldn't find a previous topic so apologies if this is a repost of a previous issue.

    Moved to tech support where bug related things go ;)

    This was reported November 21st 2012, just so you know

    I will remember the section ;)

    I guess it is not a priority as the majority don't have quad monitor setups, lol

    Has nothing to do with quad monitors.

    My point was, if you have multiple monitors, you are more likely to tab out to respond to what's going on, on the other screens.

    Maybe more likely, I'm pretty sure even single monitor users alt tab all the time though. Think of how often you see that 250 ping alt tab warning sign.
