Custom Soundset Issue

I've previously posted this question, and no one was able to answer it.

My issue is rather strange. I've taken all the older custom soundsets I had from my BG2 install folder and dropped them into BGEE. However, only the action acknowledgement sounds will play. No selection sounds, no boredom remarks, no on hit sounds; nothing. Just the same exact acknowledgement sound when I give a command, but silence for the rest of the time.

The normal soundsets all work perfectly. Replacing the stock soundsets with renamed custom sets does not cause them to work. The files are all the proper format, named correctly according to sndlist.txt and in the soundset selection screen, all the sounds will play in order when the button is clicked.

I'm well and truly stumped. By all accounts, this should work fine, but for whatever reason, it simply will not.

Its worth noting, I have not ever nor am I having any sound issues with the game other than this one.

    It's a current issue that's probably being worked on... In the meantime you can use DLTCEP (download link) and follow the instructions as posted on this thread.
