windows 8 - sound problems

After realizing that I need a windows 8 computer to make windows 8 games, I decided to try exporting my games as a html 5 website and playing them with a windows 8 surface. This works well for the most part, but I can't get any sound to work!

Is there any way to get sound working on a windows 8 surface?

I'm running windows 8.1 on my surface and the sound seems to be working fine.

Thanks in advanced. Let me know if there's any other information needed and I'll try to supply it as quickly as possible!

I just tried one of the demo games on my surface and the sound worked fine *scratches head*

If one of the C2 examples works, then it implies that your implementation is sonehow in error.

Maybe just try to recreate a very simple .capx and test. If it doesn't work, then upload for us to test.

The usual problem with sounds is to do with encoding, See the following post response from Ashley:

Thanks for the fast response!

I will try a few tests and if I'm unsuccessful, will upload some examples.

The weird thing is that it works fine on my pc running windows 7 :s

Okay, I made a little test program.

This program works on my computer but still doesn't work on my Windows 8 surface.

I used a high and low quality sound that I input into the "sound" and "Music" folder. All work on my PC running windows 7 but none of them work on my windows 8.1 surface.

The "Touched" text is just to let me know that an input was received on my surface.

Let me know if there's any more info needed as I'm determined to figure this one out.

I tried some of the construct 2 demo games on my windows 8.1 surface

The sound worked on all of them except for "Moon Shield"

This is so weird. There must be something different about the sound in Moon Shield and the way I'm implementing my game. I've played around a bit but just can't seem to figure this one out!
