PHARKAS: "Score" sound doesn't play

Description

Freddy Pharkas Frontier Pharmacist (CD/Dos/English) Scummvm 1.2.0SVN 51505 Windows 7 x64

A fairly minor bug but kind of weird. I didn't notice it at first since it's been a while since I played the game in the original interpreter, but in ScummVM the "Score" sound whenever you get points does not play. Not sure if this is also a problem in the floppy version. I think I might have that version backed up somewhere so I will try to check it later.

Confirmed that the sound *does* play in the floppy version.

I encountered the exact same bug in QG3 (v. 1.1). However, I should add that (in QG3 at least) it ONLY affects the GM and MT32 drivers. With the Adlib driver, the "score" sound plays fine.

(Other SCI1 games, such as KQ5 and KQ6CD are unaffected, so it doesn't affect all of them.)

I'm reporting this here since it seems related, but I can file a separate bug for QG3 if necessary.

just a note: it actually does play, but with volume set to 0.

Er, ok. That's not very useful though. ;)

Playing through the game a bit in Dosbox reveals that a bunch of other sound effects don't play properly, like the little click when you select icons, hammering, maybe some other stuff.

i just debugged sierra sci. In sierra sci the "vol" selector is set to 0x7f (which is highest volume). I have no real clue why that is. The calling code for the points sound will set "vol" to 0.
