When triggering a tune it will continue to play and play and play and play until I trigger another. Is this going to be fixed in the future releases? It was fine in Ultima 6 but...

Of course, it will be fixed in the future.

Music eggs actually specify if a music track should be played continuously or just once. I'm not sure under Windows, but under Linux we follow that behaviour closely (I believe the original was buggy, in that it did not respect what was specified in the eggs).

In the original, the combat music would sometimes play and not stop, particularly after Courage Test Forge of Virtue.

In windows(98) all music except combat music plays continuously. It is funny to hear the Fellowship theme in the Spirit Tunnels or the 'Sea Shanty' in Stonegate(if not attacked). Oh, well, it is good that it is going to be fixed.
