Working on a Sorcerer.

Not sure how this is 'supposed' to work, so I'm posting some questions here.

If I hit SW2, it plays all the sound and speech, as detailed in page 11 of the manual, start to finish.

If I go into diagnostics and run the sound diagnostic test, it only has speech on test 05, and it only says 2 of the 3 words that are supposed to be on U4 - it says 'Feel My', but never says power. It never says the other words.

I faintly hear some background music during 00-04, but I'm not sure how this is supposed to work.

I probed the PIA, and ran Leon's Sys 9 test ROM, and it seems to be giving the right outputs.

I had another speech board, threw it in the game, same behavior.

Any thoughts?

Anybody? Any suggestions are appreciated..

Something I should've done a couple hours of troubleshooting ago...

Fired sorcerer up in Pinmame, and sure enough, it only says 'Feel My' - it doesn't say the rest of the phrases.

So, my sound and speech *are* working correctly! Although, some of the sounds aren't as loud and clear in the game as they are in pinmame.

Thanks for posting this, was just messing around in my settings and notice the same issue with the sound test when everything seemed to be working fine in-game. Glad to hear that's "normal" (and certainly better than the alternative of everything work in test mode but not during gameplay!)
