GTA:VC sound Problems?

[Cobra15]

i was wondering when ever Vice City Crashes the sound in windows starts echoing? example when i empty my trash can it echo's the sound of the trash being thrown away and if i get an error messege the "ding" sound it makes echo's is there a way to stop this echoing? the only way i have found out is by restarting my pc i make alot of car mods for vice city so it tends to crash alot
any help would be nice
