The new sound bug in the ALPHA patch

[Anders_And]

I just want to confirm that this is an "issue" not only on my computer...

In the bugtracker thread
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=30906
it is listed as the nr 6 on the bug that most want to have fixed is the "sonar sound " bug. Basically that you can hear other planes approaching on your six o clock.

Now in the latest alpha patch on my computer this "sonar sound" bug is gone!
Can anyone else confirm it?
Start a mission on the ground with a wingman in FMB. Wait until he has his engine started. Dont start your own engine!!

Now, in the current patch you cannot hear anything outside your plane when your CANOPY IS CLOSED. However if you open the canopy you can hear his engine. But as soon as you close it, its a quiet as if a 1200hp wasnt running 10m away from you.
Is this a result of the somewhat buggy new sounds or is it actually an attempt to get rid of the "sonar sound" bug, assuming that most players fly with the canopy closed...?!?? In either case its a step in the right direction I think although I would like somehow to able to hear at least something when im sitting in the cockpit with my engine off....

Can someone else confirm this??

Best regards
