V1.2 Music lags, and Voice is slow. SOUNDS.bin is defragmented. Even with Music and SFX both OFF the game is slow, almost like it is running on 14Mhz instead of 28Mhz. Tank generation takes 7 seconds to complete. KS1, core 3.02.00, VGA0.... does not run at same speed as the video demo. Verbatim 16GB SDHC V10
Something is creating the slowdown from my Autoexec.bas I have it running correctly if I bypass the Autoexec.bas. Will investigate further what may be causing that issue.
apoears that use of .playwav in my autoexec.bas is upsetting the game music, creating complete game slowdown. If I bypass any .playwav playback, the game works perfect.
Also tested in Core v3.01.10, KS1 next - and can confirm same too - sound works merrily out of analog audio on HDMI (timing=7), nothing else changed except to VGA0 (timing=0), and no audio out analog at 50Hz.

I don't have this nice computer, but the game is very interesting. So I made a little news with a link to this page.

Can you try another video mode with 50Hz please?

There is no music or sound at all on N-GO with firmware v1.44 and Core v3.02.00 at VGA0 50Hz. The files are defragmented.
I can repro this. ks2 Next with v1.44, 2.08 and core 3.02.01, VGA0. RES/SOUNDS.BIN is present and intact, and defragged.

Fixed it in version 1.2
Thanks!
