Any info on how to get the audio working would be appreciated greatly.
There is nothing fishy in the log, I can only suggest making sure you have the latest drivers for your audio card.

Hi Jens,

I'm sorry to say that is the latest driver update for my sound card.

What I did do is run the hardware check supplied by Creative. Although it found no errors, I noticed before running the hardware check the 'reset to defaults' icon. So I ran this (resetting everything) and now I have sound!

Not sure exactly it reset, as all other games were working fine, but the games audio works now?

I must admit I should have tried that option first :-0 Well if anyone else has a similar problem, recommend that option to them!

Neil
Glad you solved it!

Added the info to the FAQ :)
