Add-on gunfire problem

I can't work this out - I've seen it with the Bf109 G-K series we did, and I'm seeing it with all the aircraft which have specific gunfire sounds, such as the 8 Browning sounds I did for the Spitfire Mk.I, the sounds for the new Mk.VIII Spitfires and the 4 Hispanos sounds I use for Hurricanes, Typhoons and Tempests. Sometimes - most of the time even - they work, but sometimes they don't. It's not a case of misnaming or anything - the paths are correct - or of the type of .wav file, which is also correct. There appears to be no logic to it. Sometimes they work, and sometimes they don't.

Does anybody have any ideas?
 
I'll take a stab...

Same sound w/ more than one gun and/ or vice versa?
(Can ya be more specific?)

Well, for the 109s, there are two different types of gun, as with the Spitfire VIIIs, but the others are one single type of gun, several times over. This happens only with add-on sounds that are not stock.
 
What happens if you add them to the preload.xml?

Yes, if the sound is driven off the MB and putting load on the processor (as opposed to having a separate soundcard), then one would suspect load on the processor as the problem; adding to preload.xml would help.
