I played Wizardry 6 but found the popping audio to be really annoying. So I developed a fix for DosBox that removes it. Here's how you can do the same:
1. Locate your 'Wizardry 6' installation folder. It should contain two sub-folders: DOSBOX and Wizardry 6.
2. Rename the DOSBOX folder to DOSBOX_backup
3. Download my updated DOSBox from here: http://www.davidwaltersdevelopment.com/tools/dosbox/
4. Extract the DOSBOX folder from this download into the Wizardry 6 folder.
5. Open the "Wizardry 6" sub-folder, it's full of files for the game.
6. Locate the file 'dosboxWizardry6.conf' and open in a text editor (it's the 8Kb one)
7. Scroll down to the line that says 'pcspeaker=true', it's on about line 139
8. Below it add a new line that reads: wizpopfix=6
9. Save and close the file. Run Wizardry 6 from the usual shortcut and hopefully the sound is better.
Hope this helps!
