First thing I noticed was you left out the 'db+' in your description.ext.

Change it to:
Quote
class Queen
      {
      name = "Queen";
      sound[] = {"WeWillRockYou.ogg", db+1, 1.0};
      titles[] = {   };
      };

Well, I tried inserting the code and that didn't help. But I do appreciate you looking into it for me. I'm not sure why it isn't working for me. If anyone can help, please let me know.
ThanX!!!

Yes, when I recorded the sound it is in mono mode.
And about renaming the file to EXT vs TXT......the file is actually named description.ext. I had to rename it for this forum due to I didn't think I could upload any file with the extension of ext.
that's why I'm kinda lost why it isn't working for me. The only thing that I didn't have set correctly was the first reply from Anmac. In regards to the db+10 issue. Other than that, everything seems to be fine, but obviously there is something missing somewhere because I don't hear the sound when I go to the briefing area.
If you have ANY other ideas, please let me know. I'm dieing to get this working in my mission.
Thanks all !!

First thing I would do is use a different sound file.

Record yourself saying something and set it up as a sound.

The try it instead of the music.

Once you enter the briefing DON'T click on any of the other tabs.  When you do it stops the sound form the previous tab.
