When I play music through Winamp, it sounds like it's being played in a large empty hall (echo-ey and static-filled).

Any idea on how to remedy this? I can fix it through rebooting, but that's a pain to do everytime I play. I've looked through the options under the Sound portion on the Control Panel but can't find anything to fix this, nor can I find an option on the Volume Control.

OS is Windows XP, audio is Avance AC97 Audio (standard issue with my laptop).

Any ideas?
Sounds like the game isn't releasing the DirectX Audio driver correctly. See if you can change the sound option in the game to not use DirectX or DirectSound during the game and see if that fixes anything.

The only other thing would be to see if there are any updates for either the game or your audio card.
