Description /dev/humancontroller 2008-08-19 23:48:53 EDT 
In games like Tremulous the main menu has a music in the background. Hearing it every time gets annoying, so people shut it up by setting s_musicvolume to 0. Yet when launching the game, a bit of music can still be heard. This happens with the base sound system only.

strictly use s_musicVolume

I gather the music is pre-amplified by the volume for a short time (to fill a large buffer), which makes the volume transitioning with the use of static variables ineffective.

Fixed in svn revision #1603.
