Check to make sure the game is using the correct devices in Options->Game Sounds.

Make sure your network is not blocking UDP.

Make sure your router supports UDP over NAT and there is not another computer on your network using UDP.

Check your computer for multiple instances of sound cards which are not all being used (DXDIAG).

Thanks Skuzzy,

I believe the problem may be the result of a recent dual ATI  radeeon crossfire cards that were installed.  Aces High was programmed with the VIA realtech audio drivers.  The option to switch over to the ATI cards is not listed in the AH game sounds.  Could you give me the process to update/install the ATI drivers into AH?

Thanks Again...

Are you wanting sound to come from your television speakers?

Hey Skuzzy,  It would be nice to regain control of the "Man Cave" and utilize the tv speakers...however the GF ack would be to much to bear...so being the diplomat I am I let her believe she has some authority at times when she is in the AO.  I guess the answer is that I use my head set / tower the majority of the time ( almost convinced myself as a current holder of my man card).

Thank You,  Vector

If you do not want sound from your television speakers, then remove/disable the HDMI audio drivers from AMD/ATI.

You should NOT be using Crossfire, with the game, as there is not a decent profile for Aces High III.
