As the title says since sep 1 I haven't been able to get GUI sounds on a snapshot build reverting to 8/31 fixes the problem
add the following to your advancesettings.xml

<audio>
<streamsilence>1</streamsilence>
</audio>

it should fix it, it did for me
Alpha is Alpha and not Stable. If you encounter bugs report these as a ticket on the bugtracker or use the stable build.

For any audio related problems try post in the Audi Engine thread in the development section.
A fix is coming shortly. It's due to a recent change to AE to automatically suspend/resume it so external players can use the audio device in exclusive modes. It also allows for power savings on Android and other low-power platforms. This is the new default behaviour.

As HarryRosen says - the <streamsilence>1</streamsilence> restores the original constant-stream method and will restore your GUI sounds until the patch is in.
