Nothing changed in the sound code between 1.0.0 and 1.0.2. Are you sure that
nothing else has changed on your machine?

Were you running any other programs at the time? Did you have two or three
engines running at the same time? What installation option did you select?

I assume that you prefer the "Spoken Move Announcements" setting, but I would
suggest trying the "Thematic Sounds" option with one of the more "thematic"
piece sets, like the African set, which has longer piece movement sounds. Let me
know if the problem still exists after you try that.
