DOOM v1.1 has a bug that keeps the Sound Blaster Pro from working on IRQ 2, and later versions do not allow usage on IRQ 10. [18-3]: Why won my Gravis UltraSound work with DOOM?

However, high IRQs are _not_ recommended. See BUGS. ////// MUSIC ////// • Doom requires that you have installed the General MIDI patch set from the 2.06a Install Disks (or later) that came with your UltraSound (and are also available via FTP and BBS).
