First, I checked the amp board on the Sanyo. It was recently recapped. Also, I've been reading Mike's Arcade repair logs and I _thought_ I might know what the issue is but now I'm not so sure.
Here are the symptoms:
I thought it might be a bad EPROM (I've got EPROMs on the way) but now I'm wondering if there is a deeper issue with the sound board?
Any suggestions or experience with this particular issue are of course welcome.

I should also add that all of the sounds that are present sound clear, crisp and loud!
Here are the symptoms:
- When you coin up sound works.
- Music plays. Stomping sound works.
- Grin noise is absent however it "clicks" three times--as if it were a corrupt sample.
- When you die, there is no noise. On first two levels.
- Falling noise works on first two levels.
- However, (and this is the weird part.) When you're on the spring and elevator level, the death noise randomly plays (as far as I can tell this is only if you've died in previous levels) AND there is no falling noise if you fall. If you die the dying noise still doesn't happen. But I thought it was weird it was playing randomly on that level.
