The title should not specify "Opening Lead". The problem occurs on first seat opening bid.
The your-turn-to-bid alert audio chime often fails to sound for me in the Free Auto tournaments when I am first seat in the auction. By "often" I mean the problem may occur well over 20% of the time when I am first seat. It never occurs at any other time.
As a result I get removed from tournaments on a significant number of occasions when, while dummy or when the play of a hand is complete several minutes before the round times out, I am doing something besides staring at an inactive screen or following play.
This has been going on for me since day one, for years, during which I have used at least two different (old, used) PCs.
If I am doing something wrong in my options set-up what could it be? Otherwise I wonder if there is a possible maintenance quick fix by BBO.
