Sound Issues - Sims 3 Showtime

There has never been any sound issues until now.

There is no music or singing using any of the Showtime items. Preformances have no sound. Sing-a-grams have no sound. The piano , the stereos and other items such as these seem to work ok.

I have Ambitions, LateNight, Pets, Season, World Adventures, Supernatural, University and Showtime.

I have been playing for a few days and this is a consistent issue.

    This isn't relevant to your question but I noticed that you have 8gb or memory on a 32-bit operating system, which only supports 4gb. You should consider upgrading to a 64-bit operating system to take advantage of all of your availiable memory.
