Simple problem: music hardly ever plays in IWD 1. I get music on the title screen, and OCCASIONALLY in game itself, but usually it's just ambient noise and sound effects. I have the mods suggested on the sticky (Widescreen, Unfinished Business, Item Upgrade, and Fix Pack) as well as the NPC mod, and I've tried both with and without the High Quality music mod. The game is still perfectly playable, but given what I've heard about the quality of the soundtrack, I'd very much like to have it working.

Music is not playing constantly in any area, that's how it's designed, and also performing many tasks and conversations will delay the onset of non-battle music. Try doing nothing in an enemy free zone for a short time. You also might want to check your music volume in options.
Yeah, I've advanced further in the game now, and I've heard some more music, but it still seems really infrequent and delayed. Chalk it up to bad design, I guess. Thanks for the tip.
