If I boot under 1.3, everything works like it should. But if I boot under 2.0 (which is what I do the other 99.98% of the time) no audio track. Everything works fine if I run from the CLI, but no audio if run from the same icon I use for 1.3. All the icon's are those that came with the demos. Is 1.3 possibly letting me get away with something it shouldn't?
