My DCS version: DCS World OpenBeta 2.9.4

I would like to add some simple sound effects to the missions. When I add (ME/trigger/sound to coalition) a sound effect in ME, I test it first and it works in ME. But when I go on a flight, the sound effects are not heard. It doesn't matter if I use .wav or .ogg files.

First of all, as mentioned in other audio related comments, sound playback in DCS is NOT sequential; your ACTIONS list gets processed all at once, so both sounds will play at the same time unless START DELAY is used. If you want the 2nd sound to play after the first, you have to delay the start by the duration of the first sound + gap if required or play it using another trigger/flag that gets set after the first sound playback has been started and timed out (duration of the first sound i.e. TIME AFTER FLAG).

Do both text messages display? And at the right times?

I don't hear any sound effects in flight, not at all. As you can see from the attached photo, the first sound is delay=0, the first message is delay=2, the second sound is delay=11, the second message is delay=14.

.... my second attempt to get a simple sound effect in flight.

Sound works in ME but not in flight. Is the problem in some settings?

Don't you love it when you can fix it yourself? 😎

Glad you sorted it out.  I would have said to split out those Sound Actions to see if that helped.
