So playing the original Jagged Alliance, I was getting very frustrated by my characters not seeming to say anything when discovering new items, Fidel not wanting to leave his target, and especially when winning a sector and giving a triumph speech (from whoever killed the final guy). I couldn't figure out why the speech wasn't happening for the longest time, despite uninstalling/reinstalling the game, deleting old save game files in case something was corrupted and checking all the control panel settings in the game. No forums I found on the internet could explain what was going on, but I FINALLY figured it out, and created an account here to post what I found.
It may sound stupid to veteran players of the game, but I was trying to get rid of all of the junk on my characters, and didn't realize what one item did. Namely, the headset. Yes, this crappy headset every character comes with and has the apparent value of an alarm clock -- if your characters are not wearing either this or an extended ear set, you will NOT hear victory speeches, complaints that your characters are getting shot at, discovery of items and all the good speech stuff that gives JA1 its personality. I nearly purchased a second copy of this game from Steam because I thought the GOG Galaxy cloud saves were corrupt, but you just need to have your characters wear a headset. To be fair, I haven't tested how many of your characters need to wear one, but logically, if someone isn't wearing one and makes a discovery, he/she won't have any way to communicate it to the rest of the team. So probably no sound from that character that day. It makes sense realistically speaking, just another kudo to give the game designers of JA1. What an awesome game.
So as needless as it may seem, keep those headsets on your characters if you want to enjoy many of the sounds Jagged Alliance 1 has to offer!
