I can confirm this affects different servers to different degrees. On my linux server, I ended remastering and renaming the standard quake sounds and moving them into a new folder. Another member and I watched as 1 quake sound at a time would stop working on his Win32 server; they're still broken.

The testing on my linux machine was with sv_pure 0 and no pure_server_whitelist.txt file.
I do have the attached files below in my orangebox/cstrike directory.
I haven't seen anyone mention these file yet. Are they replacements for the pure_server_whitelist.txt file?

What I observed was:
1) I had sounds under misc that DID work
2) Any sound under quake would not work, including one copied from item 1 above
3) When I copied the quake sounds to a new folder, some started working.
4) When I remastered and renamed (don't know if rename important) the broken sounds, they all worked.

I hope this is just some weird bug that gets fixed and not some Gestapo move.

Lumi I've been playing with different approaches and I've found that for me, the best way is to just rename a file:

sound.mp3 to >> sound1.mp3 but the folder seems to be the dominating force. rename: folder /sound/ to /sound2/. seems to be allot easier and more responsive.

I did this with many trials and it seems to have taken all my worries away. Just deleting the files from client side isnt going to help players joining your server, renaming the folder will.

I'm glad for you mate. Do you use anything other than sounds, like maps, models?
Bacardi made an interesting post about the pure list, its here, may not be relevant to you but if you find some sounds aren't working it may help. If your not having any trouble don't change a bloody thing

How did you test it? Did you delete your client side sounds first then join? (delete files from your pc and rejoin to see if downloading?)

EDIT: Awesome you're from Canada!!! I have 6000 family members there. Oh and a brother in law thats a Mounty. I avoid him ... fear of jail lolz

mate that seems a lot of hard work, did you try just renaming them first? a.sound to b.sound? Or did you start backwards and rewrite an overture lol. I had a problem with only one sound not downloading, renamed and it was fine. I'll test it all again and dbl check.
