I just installed this mod and updated it to 1.04 and it looks great. But I can't get the sound effects to work. I am trying to use the original sound effects. I can hear the music, which I have set as the FFNx Music, but I cannot hear any sound effects. Here are my settings:


If I choose any sound effects aside from the original ones, those are audible. But I prefer to play with the original ones. Please note that this behavior is happening with all audio on my PC with the vanilla FF7 as well. Something notable about my default audio device, Windows defines it as a multichannel device and unlike most audio devices, there is no ability to “configure speakers” in the control panel. It is always 8 channels. This may have something to do with why the vanilla version’s audio does not work at all, even though literally every other game’s audio works fine.

As you can see here in the control panel for this device, the "Configure" button is greyed out, that is this device's way of defaulting to 7.1. I do have all speakers connected for a 7.1 system, so this is not an instance of the SFX coming out of a center channel that I don't have a speaker for.
