Summary

0000555: Music Volume gets reset to minimum whenever we start a new game, after we just opened the application (+ saved sound settings)

Description

Here's an overview of all situations:

1. (the only really buggy one) Music Volume is always resent to minimum on new game the first time we open one.

2. Going back to Main Menu to start a new game preserves whatever sound settings we currently have, so in this case we don't have any issue.

3. But this I'm not sure if I should consider bug or feature: If we load a saved game (application just opened, or going back to main menu for it), than the sound settings are those the game had when we saved it. IIRC H3 didn't preserve the sound settings on the saved games, but always preserved your last setting. The downside of this "feature" - if meant like this - is that if you want for example to play in silence (at work, at home while ppl are sleeping), but accidentally load at some point a game which was saved with high volume settings, you'll certainly break the silence around (if you were wise enough to leave the speakers on). ;) But perhaps there is also a certain added value on the other hand in preserving such settings on the saved game - I just don't happen to see it right now.
