Checklist (we expect you to perform these steps before opening the issue)

  • I have searched for a similar issue in this repository and did not find one.
  • I am using an official build obtained from releases or updated one of those builds using its in-app updater.
  • I have re-dumped the game and performed a clean install without mods and the issue is still present.
  • I have disabled all patches and cheats and the issue is still present.
  • I have all the required system modules installed.

Describe the Bug

I was trying to play Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 and I am experiencing issues with the in-game music and certain audio clips. I've mentioned this issue in the Discord but nobody knew why this occurs.

Reproduction Steps

When starting the game (on the main menu) and on the character selection screen, there should be music playing in the background, but this does not happen in every version of the emulator I tested. I've tried releases, nightly builds, and no luck. I tested a few matches and performance was great, but when starting a match, the characters usually say something before they fight. For some reason, they do no speak before or after the match, but any audio clips (not music) during the match WILL play and I think it is odd. The game is completely playable on my setup except for the lack of music and certain audio clips. While this occurs, in the terminal, a message is spammed repeatedly but I was told in the Discord that it had nothing to do with the sound issues. I ensured I had my system modules in the correct place and I redumped my game, no luck. I've referred to this issue: https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadps4-game-compatibility/issues/151 and I am not experiencing the same results as some people that commented here. The game mostly has sound, but no music, and some sound clips do not play. This issue should be listed as a bug here rather than on the compatibility list repo as this issue could fix other games with sound issues if resolved.

Maybe he said audio for the sound but not for the music. Thanks for the report !
Can you also please update the test with the 0.6.0 version on the compat list and link your issue
