AddJournalQuestEntry and GiveXPToCreature sound conflict

I'm using in the same script AddJournalQuestEntry and GiveXPToCreature. When I set the journal to an entry which has the completed flag, the sounds play fine.

However, if the creature also happens to gain a level, only the level up sound is heard, and the traditional quest complete sound does not play.

I wonder if this is a bug or a feature? Is there a way for me to make sure that both sounds play normally?

    You could use DelayCommand on AddJournalQuestEntry so that it plays after the level up.

    Since GiveXPToCreature and level up are simultaneous, you can't easily play two sounds, but I can't see why you'd need to, as both signal an XP gain.

    I've noticed that this happens sometimes even when you dont get a level. I will try to add some DelayCommand to see if it works, thanks for the tip.

    > both signal an XP gain.

    I understand where you are going, but I would rather having the two sounds, since I think it is possible for a player that got his XP forget to look at the journal.

    There are visual cues, of course - the journal button flashes, and the portrait changes to the level up image...
