Something odd happens when I have Winamp or VLC running with GE:S. Every time a new game starts, it lowers the media players' volume in Windows 7 volume mixer down to near 0. I haven't seen this happen in Half Life 2. Anyone know what that's about?

Cheers.

Hmm, that's odd. I tend not to have other applications other than Steam running in the background when I'm playing GE:S so I've never encountered that particular issue before. Have you made a thread about it on the official forums? Maybe it's an unknown error http://forums.geshl2.com/index.php/board,131.0.html

I'll register later and make a post.

Liar! Theres no bugs in GE:S!

Wait what are those giant arrows? why aren't the bots moving? what the **** is tha... hl2.exe has stopped responding.

umm ok you borderlands it is

Yeah, I have the same thing happen to me if I am playing music in Spotify or iTunes. I guess it is supposed to make it play in the background so you can hear you game...

What a silly thing to do.

Problem solved! I'm guessing it's because the game uses voice communication.

Ahhh good thinking!

Gotta love an easy fix
