Hello. After upgrading to RetroFE 0.9.0, I'm having some trouble with video previews for games. The videos play, but the audio is distorted and staticy. This doesn't appear to be a problem with the system videos on the main menu, just for the game videos in each system menu.
As mentioned, I didn't (and still don't) have this problem with the previous version I'm upgrading from, 0.8.14. I'm using the Aeon Nox layout with both. What's really interesting is that if I copy layout.xml from 0.8.14 and copy overwrite layout.xml for 0.9.0, the videos play fine with no audio distortion.
Any ideas on what might be causing this, or how I can troubleshoot further?

It’s caused by the volume animation in the layout. Apparently there’s an issue with dual videos with volume animation on some sound cards. I haven’t been able to figure our exactly how to fix it.

Since it's very replicable on my system, is there anything I can do to assist with troubleshooting? I'm not a developer, but I have no problem testing out anything you'd like, gathering logs, providing feedback, etc.
In the meantime, I've deleted all '<animate type="volume"' lines in layout.xml. That "fixed" it for me for now. Thanks for the heads up.

I'll give your offer some though; if I can't figure it out I'll ask you to run some more tests.
