Trying to calm the emotions a little:
I never used the "sound only" option of FSP so far, but as I'm also using the german version of FS9 I gave it a try. Guess what? It's true:
No (audible) ATC clearance. That doesn't mean, Brad, that ATC ist not working due to lack of power, because you get the (verbose) options
to "1- Confirm Clearance" or "2- Repeat" as well as you can listen to ATIS and hear ATC clearing AI a/c. I tried this with the default
Cessna 182 and default 737, both running on engine power. After being cleared for IFR (which you can't hear, though) you get the next
option for taxi clearance (which you don't hear either). That means, everything is working as usual, you just don't hear the waves for
clearance request and confirm.
I don't think either that this is because FSP would be interacting with FS ATC in any way. I think it's just some sort of sound conflict. Would
be interesting to know if this only happens with the german release.
Hope this helped a bit to clear things up and maybe Dan will find a clue on what's causing this.
