Can't play two sounds at once

[Gamer (ex-Cantavanda)]

Hello!
I'm using GM8.

I cannot play two sounds at the same time. I tried both wav, both mp3, one wav one mp3, I tried checking "normal sound", "background music", "use multimedia player", in all combinations, but nothing worked!
What do I do?

Thanks!

Thats a bit odd I just tested mine and it works fine.
I created an object and wrote this in step:

if (keyboard_check_pressed(vk_space) ) {
  sound_play(sound0)
  sound_play(sound1)
}

A bit of code might help us a bit more...

EDIT: By chance did you use sound_volume or sound_fade?

I did not!
I just did the D&D sound commands

That's very strange, but if you're on Windows 8 it could be caused by their odd changes to DirectMusic. Try using my extension!
