Hello,
I would like to report a similar problem. I wasn't sure if it was a bug or
not -- I thought it was a weird setup of my system. (Btw, I'm not the guy
who wrote the orginal post :)). I have a Pro Audio Specture 16 sound card.
I use soundblaster env var of A220 Dma 1 IRQ 5 and T 3
It works when I do it from DOS, but as soon as I go into Windows 95 and
play a .wav file and exit back to DOS and try playign a sample, it doesn't
play. WHen I use the setup program that came with my PAS card to test to
see if a .wav file plays, it works fine.
-> Does the problem happen if you only use the MIDI sound, or only the
-> digital sound, or can either cause it?
Oh..and.. the MIDI's are not effected. It's only the samples..they don't
play after I exit from Windows 95. 
-> Does the same thing happen with any Allegro programs (demo.exe,
-> play.exe, etc), or do the effects differ depending on which program you
-> ran?
It happens on all the program that uses the code for playign samples..at
least for me.
-> Are you running under win95, or clean DOS?
If I run the program under windows 95 in dos shell, there is no problem.
It's only when I boot to DOS, load the PAS sound drivers (in my autoexec),
go to windows, exit windows and try to play the sample with allegro.

Thanks!
