So I recently downloaded Tiberian Sun from Origin (bought the UC a few years back) and installed the unofficial patch. However, whenever I try to play the game, it launches with the error message "Unable to create Direct Sound object. Preceding with sound disabled". I am using a set of headphones, so the stereo issue doesn't work. the game works fine it seems, just without any sound. I am running on Windows 10, with the CnCNet unofficial patch already installed. Please help.
