If you don\'t have a sound card, comment out a few lines at the beginning of the psclient.cfg file (in your planeshift directory), by addind a semi-colon at the beginning. It should be like this (modified lines in blue) :

--------------------------------------------------------
; Sound renderer
;System.PlugIns.iSoundRender = crystalspace.sound.render.software

; Document parser
System.Plugins.iDocumentSystem = crystalspace.documentsystem.xmlread

; Image Loader
System.PlugIns.iImageIO = crystalspace.graphic.image.io.multiplex

; Motion manager-- must go HERE BEFORE level loader...
System.PlugIns.iMotionManager = crystalspace.motion.manager.default

; Level Loader
System.PlugIns.iLoader = crystalspace.level.loader

; Binary Sprite Loader
System.PlugIns.iLoaderPlugin = crystalspace.mesh.loader.factory.sprite.3d.binary

System.Plugins.iBugPlug = crystalspace.utilities.bugplug

; Sound Loader
;System.PlugIns.iSoundLoader.MP3 = crystalspace.sound.loader.mp3
;System.PlugIns.iSoundLoader.AIFF = crystalspace.sound.loader.aiff
;System.PlugIns.iSoundLoader.AU = crystalspace.sound.loader.au
;System.PlugIns.iSoundLoader.IFF = crystalspace.sound.loader.iff
;System.PlugIns.iSoundLoader.WAV = crystalspace.sound.loader.wav
;System.PlugIns.iSoundLoader.OGG = crystalspace.sound.loader.ogg
;System.PlugIns.iSoundLoader = crystalspace.sound.loader.multiplexer
--------------------------------------------------------
Don\'t change other lines than the ones above.

On the other hand, if you do have a sound card, check for up to date drivers, etc... (or give more details)

I hope it helps.

I don\'t know about your OS or what other devices you have, but in the case you have a modem with voice (often the case with 56k modems), or another sound chip on your motherboard, disable them. You can do that from the device manager under WinXP, for instance.

I had this problem once with another program because of a modem, on WinMe I think. Just disabling the modem voice support solved it. What happened is that the program was selecting the wrong device, even if the SBLive was the default one in Windows.

I suppose you have tried to install the drivers from CreativeLabs ? If the tip above doesn\'t work, it might be worth it.

Try this:

My Computer--->>>Control Panel--->>>Multimedia

Then select different sound configurations. I couldn\'t get sound in games before, then changed it, and now all games work fine.
