Here is a small compileable example that demonstrates the issue: Code: #include <acknex.h> void main() { SOUND* snd = snd_create("#1"); fixed handle = snd_loop(snd,100,0); while (1) { fixed balance = cosv(total_ticks * 10) * 99; snd_tune(handle,100,100,balance); DEBUG_VAR(handle,0); DEBUG_VAR(balance,50); wait(1); } } Keep in mind you can only use mono sounds. Stereo sounds are not yet supported. Wanna post in the bugs forum? Or shall I? I have the current beta installed. I can also post in the beta forum.

It happens with certain audio drivers and is there since A3, not since A7. Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...
