I've noticed that if I pause the game, the music restarts. Anyone know a way to fix that?

Is this also the case if you start revolt.exe straight from the Re-Volt directory? I have not yet encountered issues with the music restarting in the GOG version - but if the GOG version somehow emulates the CD music, then I can confirm this bug. It has something to do with the way that Miles Sound Studio CD Audio is handled on Windows Vista/7/8 making it unable to continue the music (basically the way resuming music changed since windows 98 and since its a thing in the old MSS library the 1.2 developers have had no luck fixing it).

I don't seem to have this problem if I start revolt.exe straight from the Re-Volt directory though. Not sure if that works for you?

Unfortunately, the same thing happens if I run it from the directory. It's not that big a deal but it's mildly annoying

I didn't even notice this until you mentioned it. Great, now it annoys me too! :D

(Strangely, it sometimes changes the music to an entirely different track. Curious...)

I'd write a support ticket in that case :)

Same issue here. Any time I pause and unpause the game it starts playing the main menu music.

This seems to be a bug in GOG's version. I never ever had this problem on my old Re-Volt 1.2 Beta and neither in Alpha.

And if you watch Gamespot's video you will see him dealing with the same problem described by you here:

I was told it was unfortunately unfixable. No matter.
