All Sound Except "Someone makes a move" Gone

Post by Meeplelowda »

All my sounds except those associated with the "Someone makes a move" event have disappeared. Suggestions?

The games on here make certain sounds when a predefined event happens. Those sounds are set on the page for which a link was provided in the post immediately before this one. For example, the games make a sound when the game starts, when someone joins a table, when you win, when you lose, when you gain/lose arena points, etc.

Spontaneously, my games are not playing any sounds except the one assigned to "someone makes a move." If I go to the Sound Preferences page and hit the [Play] test buttons, all of the sounds play fine. Only the in-game behavior has changed.

Problem resolved. I'd forgotten that I somewhat recently installed a browser plug-in that disables HTML5 autoplay to prevent video advertisements from playing on sites. A side effect is that it disables the HTML5 commands that play the sounds on BGA! So I just had to whitelist BGA.
