Chuck,

In Legacy, you press the start up button for this engine on the remote. The sequence is this:

1. Tower cam begins to talk with a message that we will get this train moving

2. The diesel sound begins to start up the engine, but goes silent ( At this point all sound cuts out (the train is not moving) All goes silent no RPM sounds.  Tower cam and Crew talk will still work but no rail sounds.  Bell and Horn work fine also. I do not run any trains in conventional mode.  I can switch this engine over to conventional mode if need be, but previously it always worked fine in Legacy mode.

So you are aware, there is separate volume for prime mover- aka engine sounds VS other sounds.

Being the sound card basically works, and you are missing prime mover sounds, I would hit AUX1 on the remote, and then keep pressing Vol up (1 in CAB mode). The AUX1 prior to volume is like a shift key choosing a different option- in this case, specifically prime mover volume VS global volume.

Edit- again it makes perfect sense. The extended startup sequence or even normal startup sequence are separate recordings and fall under a special category of sound clip or sequence. So there would be the startup sounds (under global volume setting), however if prime mover and background sounds was specifically adjusted to be lower or off completely, then it would do EXACTLY that symptom- no prime mover sounds in operational mode while signal sounds and crew talk remain at the global volume setting.
