50RC1: Custom sounds are silent

[Iori Branford]

I play with custom music/sound WADs. The music is in OGG and works good, but when I should be hearing the sounds, I hear nothing. This goes for both WAV and OGG sounds. Bug?

EE doesn't support waves directly; are you sure the sounds are converted into Doom's format?

Converting to 8-bit mono fixed them, although I swear I got normal WAV and OGG sounds playing in Eternity before.

EE can play OGGs as music tracks. It only supports Doom raw sound effects currently, however. ZDoom and its derivatives are the only ports I'm aware of that can play wave-format sounds at the present time. Not sure how, if at all, it supports OGGs.

For the record, ZDoom does support OGGs.
