<p>This has been ongoing for far too long.  Turning the music slide control all the way down in options does not get rid of it.  Logging to character select doesn't stop it, either--still playing even while in character select window.</p><p>Is there a fix that I haven't heard about?  This is very annoying to me.</p><p>Thanks for any help re this.</p>

<p>It's EQ2. If I zone while in combat (at least if not always after having broken the encounter with /yell), I sometimes am stuck with combat that overlays other music. The music and combat music sliders do not remove it. Logging out and back in fixes.</p><p>I'm using vista (new install of it) and a fantastic system I built myself. It's not a computer problem.</p>

<p>I, as well as many others are still intermittently getting this bug.  When it happens I have to not only camp, but restart the game to get rid of the combat-music.</p><p>Its really, really aggravating.  It started up a few weeks ago and has happend to me about a half dozen times or so.</p><p>Please fix this.</p>

<p>*puts up hand*</p><p>I'm another with the same intermittent issue. Over the weekend, happened about three or four times.</p><p>Didn't keep a track of the wherefores etc but the times I did notice the overlapping combat music was upon a zoning to break an encounter.</p>

I've experience this issue a few times recently on the test server, and I hate having to log out and back in just to kill the combat music overlay bug when I've ended combat.

<p>Supposedly the combat music is the music for Lavastorm, which sucks.</p><p>Just thought I'd throw that out there.</p>

I remember my first time in Lavastorm thinking "what's this?" I can't be doing with hearing this *all* the time in and out of battle.</p><p>Eventually, I copied over the old eq1 lavastorm.mp3 file to the custom sound directory for eq2. Now <i>that</i> music is much more sedate and pleasant to listen to whilst in Lavastorm even if there's not much to it. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

I experienced this rather frequently when I was questing in Darklight Woods. Now that I've moved on to Commonlands, I actually haven't experienced it yet.
