Empire at War & FoC have no sound

[Darth Ken0bi]

Hello I am hoping someone can help me with my problem;

I have Star Wars Empire at War + Forces of Corruption Gold Pack and everytime time I run either EaW or FoC the sound for the computer cuts out, the game has no sound and when I quit the game and do anything else there is no sound untill I restart my computer.

I can not post my computer specs for this is not the computer I play my games on.

I have tried turning down Sound Acceleration but that does not help.

If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Found a solution, I just play music on Winamp and the sound does not cut out for some reason... so then I just Alt-Tab and close winamp and all is good
