Are you experiencing this on one specific character or after switching characters in general? A sound file may be corrupted so I'd recommend follow the instructions below to possibly fix your issue.</p><p>You may want to make backups and then delete the following files and folders in your EverQuest 2 directory:  cache folder (does not apply to Steam users)  eq2_recent.ini  eq2_default.ini  EverQuest2.exe  eq2.iniAs well as the character specific files, these will appear as follows:  <ServerName>_<CharacterName>_EQ2_uisettings.ini  <StationName>_characters.iniNext, delete the configuration files/folder by following these instructions:  1. Open the EverQuest II LaunchPad. (Do not login at this time.)  2. Click Advance Tools, Open Game Directory, then close the LaunchPad.  3. Look for any files explained above and delete them.  4. Close all open folders and restart EverQuest II using the LaunchPad to login and play.If deleting these files does not resolve your issue, you can restore your backed up files and folders and retain your hotkeys, contact lists, and display settings.</p><p>If you continue to have issues, I'd recommend submitting a ticket to our technical support team so we can further assist you. Please be sure to include your DXdiag and MSinfo to expedite the process. (Instructions are in my signature below) <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/e8a506dc4ad763aca51bec4ca7dc8560.gif" border="0" /></p>
