No sound ingame

I've made a post about this before and wasn't able to resolve anything then, but I've now decided to take another proper crack at playing this game and have encountered the exact same issue. Any help or insight would be much appreciated as it has now been two years since I first started dreaming about captaining my very own submarine in SH3!

Basic info:
Own the game through Steam
Version 1.4b
I use Windows 10
Have installed SH3 Commander and GWX 3.0 (there is no sound in vanilla either)
Have applied the 4gb patch
I run the game in Win 7 compatibility with administrator rights

I can't think of any more relevant information but post a reply with a request for a piece of information and I will provide. Anything that will move me closer to resolving this issue once and for all!

Thanks in advance!

Go into the sound folder and try playing individual sound files. Might lead to an error message.

What do you have your Windows Sound set to? Frequency rate and bit-depth matter. Do System Sounds play?

In the properties for my headphones it says that I have it set to 16 bits, 48000 Hz (DVD-Quality). I can hear all other sounds on the computer and I have made sure that I haven't just muted the game in the sound panel.

I can hear the sounds when playing them directly from the sound folder
