'Play music on room load' not working

I've ticked 'Play music on room load' in every room of my game.  Musics 1, 2, 3, and 4 play when called.  However, in the last three rooms, I have music 5 set to play.  It doesn't.  I played the MUSIC5 file on a media player, and it works fine.  It's no different than the other music files as far as I can tell.  I tried rebuilding the .vox files too, and that didn't seem to help either.

Any suggestions?

Did it work if you play it using PlayMusic() or whatever action available in the interaction editor ? (too lazy to check the manual, the names may not be correct here)

What format was it in? MIDI? MOD? XM? MP3? OGG? We need more info.

I placed PlayMusic(5); in my Player Enters Screen (after fadein) script.  Still, the music is silent.  I tried turning the speakers up to full volume, but that's not the problem, it's simply not playing.

MUSIC5 is a midi file, just like the four before it.  I'm really dumbfounded here, it's exactly like the others.

What happens if you change that exact line of code to PlayMusic(4); ?
Does that work?
If yes, it's safe to say that there's something wrong with the midi. Can you upload it?
If no, there's probably something wrong with the room file. Does it work if you call PlayMusic(5); in another room?

This is getting insane.

I changed PlayMusic(5); to PlayMusic(4);
Tested the game, silence.  So I think, 'must be something wrong with the room file.'

Out of curiosity, I change 'Play Music on Room Load [4]' to 'Play Music on Room Load [5]' in one of the rooms that gave me no problems.  It won't play either.

Perhaps the midi is corrupted somehow?  Any ideas?

I once had a music problem also, I fixed it by totally uninstalling the soundcard drivers and then
install them again, and restart computer.. The drivers are available on th net if you dont have them.
I would get you to a site where to get the soundcard drivers, but I dunno what soundcard you have.
Google is your friend  ;)
