java 7 update 4 and stone sound loss

Just like to mention that on going up to Java 7 update 4, stone sound disappeared from consciousness.
On reverting back to Java 6 update 31 all things got restored.
In the interim is there a solution for this oddity?
Might mention that this happened with Windows 7
Cheers

There are a couple other threads on this topic. If you're using the webstart client the easiest fix you can try to run KGS with Java 7 is perhaps this one:

Edit the shortcut or command that starts CGoban and add
-J-Dsun.sound.useNewAudioEngine="false"
after javaws.
For example, if your command was javaws cgoban.jnlp change it to javaws -J-Dsun.sound.useNewAudioEngine="false" cgoban.jnlp
Some of you please try this, and post the results here.
For those of you who use the "java" command instead of the "javaws", remove the "-J" For example,
java -Dsun.sound.useNewAudioEngine="false" -jar cgoban.jar
Thank you, person that sent the email.
(I guess he wishes to remain anonymous, since he did not post that here himself.)
