The strangest thing seems to happen when you shoot the ball up the windcoaster- It causes the sound card to cut out for a split second.

It doesn't happen in test mode, burn-in, or the switch test mode. I Wonder if it has something to do with the Power supply - It's a Rottendog replacement - but the problem seems to happen after it fires the "Switched flashers" or something. I started a game, and put the ball in my pocket. With the game running, I activate the Wind Coaster switch, and it flashes the lamps on the backboard, then you hear a little "click" or beginnings of static through the speaker, and then the sound cuts out.

Any suggestions on how to debug this - or better yet fix it for good?

Thanks!

Quoted from Jtm3:

This solved the exact same problem on my hook with RD board

Is there any way you could shoot me a pic of the jumper you changed to affect this change? I didn't take the board out yet, but when I was looking at the board mounted in the game I couldn't seem to locate that Rs1/Rs2 on the power board. What does RS stand for anyway? I gather it just a piece of wire instead of an actual resistor.
