Summary0002241: Available sound channels decrease with HUD enabled
DescriptionIn mods with really dense soundscapes, the number of available sound channels is much lower with the HUD on than with the HUD off. This causes certain sounds, like explosions, countermeasures, flak, and engine sounds, to cut out.
Additional InformationA video of Wings demonstrating the problem:

An observation: Wings' heavy capship turrets make loud noises that are audible for a considerable distance for both firing and impact sounds. When two capital ships are exchanging fire with their big guns, the sound channels that are missing with the HUD on come back, and you can hear flak explosions, countermeasures, etc. However, when the capships stop shooting/one capship destroys the other, the sound channels are lost again.

It turns out this was caused by my scripted artificial horizon. The mission with the capships appeared to work because the horizon was disabled (as it was a space mission). I'm uploading the gauge for you guys to look at.

Just to clarify, is this actually a RC3 issue, or a trunk/new sound code issue, and is it fixed in the new sound code if it was originally in RC3?

I guess I should read comments better. However there does seem to be a similar issue with the new sound code. I'll file a new ticket though.
