This is a sound card/com2 conflict... I had the same problem, a standard SB on 
irq 7 and a modem on com1.  The default is Com2 for descent. so when I selected 
multi-player modem it checked com2, which the soundcard didn't like. I set com 
settings to com1 and when I restarted the game it wouldn't check com2... so it 
sounds all nice now...
