Sound pitch?

While playing Doom, I noticed that the sound effects on my SB Pro changed in
pitch frequently.. For example, when I hear a certain death cry from a
former human, it is sometimes a bit slower (resulting in a lower voice), and
sometimes slightly faster (higher voice).  It's as if the sampling of the
sound effects vacillate.... I'm not complaining, it adds a little variety to
the sound, but is this normal (i.e. done intentionally)?  It seems like it
was intentional to me, because every other program that I have works fine
with my soundcard.  Or is it a bug?  Has anyone else experienced this?  To
see if it works on your soundcard try this: press escape quickly a couple of
times during the game and listen to the series of sounds that results....
