Here's one (heinous) workaround for the OSX sound drop-out issue in MC/Rev.
Capture the level of the beep volume, set the beep volume to a very low
number, play a beep, and the restore the beep volume. I'm guessing this
works because it forces the OS play a "required" sound. In my tests,
setting the beep volume to 0 did not solve the problem (it must be at least
10), nor did setting the system volume level. So far, the only fix I've
found is via the following method (there may be others):
(This can be called by a resumeStack handler and/or intermittently when the
stack is idle)
on fixAudio
put the beepLoudness into tLevel
set the beepLoudness to 10
beep
set the beepLoudness to tLevel
end fixAudio
Disclaimer: I only claimed this can work; I did not claim it was pretty.
