Would it be feasible to have the option to select between emulated sounds, and samples, until this gets fixed?

Can we do the same thing with Donkey Kong?

The error is with using samples, not any discrete emulation - so we can't "choose" another method since samples is all there is currently.

Seems like something an alternate build author could do easily enough. MisfitMAME, for instance, was using samples for Donkey Kong and other early Nintendo games that used discrete (mario, dkongjr) almost up until the last release.

Tafoid is correct. I was the one who provided the samples from a board set I repaired a few years ago. I also worked with Aaron Giles to correct the emulated frequency of one of the SN76496 sound chips which is now thankfully 100% accurate. The zaxxon.c re-write did break the samples shortly afterwards. I think Aaron did the best he could in order to keep the samples stable with the other games within the driver. I can only imagine the complexity of it knowing that Aaron tried but still could not get all of the samples to play nice with each other. What it needs is a miracle from a worthy discrete sound coder.
