)OK, I've finally got round to uploading a demo showing the sound delay bug.
About it:
- All sounds (can't confirm voice comms, though) have a delay before playing.
- Server was not lagging. Both netgrah and scoreboard shows normal pings. (the demo may show high pings on the netgraph- that's just demo playback ping AFAIK)
- 0 choke, 0 loss.
- Every player on the server experienced it.
- Happened on a combat map, too. Map change did not help.
Something to think about: a day later I played on a different server. Things were running normally when I was highlighted on IRC. I Alt+tabbed out of NS to look at my IRC program. When I restored NS, every player had the sound bug. Not sure if this is a coincidence.
Hope this helps.

).Many thanks to Sion of Urban Gamer for hosting the demo. Check the web-site for some UK servers.
