Strange (broken) sound effects

[wackychimp]

I'm running MAME32 right now and in some of the games have one or two sound effects in them sound all broken and choppy (but the rest ore fine).  Any one experienced this?  I'm wondering if its the ROM or my sound card.

Have you always had this problem?  Or only since using MAME32?  I seem to remember having a similar problem when I used MAME32 - I seem to remember the frameskip option was to blame.  I think setting it to 'Auto' rather than '0' may help (?).

Also which games?  Some games just seem to sound a bit 'crackly' to me (eg some revisions of MK2).

I doubt very much it's your soundcard

Actually I've only used MAME32.  I'd never played these games before so I wasn't sure if it was the ROMs or not.

Where do I set the frameskip?
