Sounds downloading but not playing

The Gungame sounds download from my server to a client when the client doesn't have them, although they NEVER seem to play...
I always get this error message in my client developer console:
'Failed to load sound "gungame\default\gg5_welcome.mp3", file probably missing from disk/repository'

Anyone with the same issue (or probably a fix?)?

Server: Linux dedicated
Gungame5 v5.0.586

What is your server IP?

You have sv_pure 2 because ZBlock forces you to have sv_pure enabled. With sv_pure, clients are not allowed to play any sounds that did not come with their stock installation.

Ok, thanks Warren for notifying me!
I never used zBlock before, but a friend who is hosting his own CSS War Server recommended it to me.
I will check how to change the sv_pure value and the whitelist.

At the moment I think the sv_pure value should be set to 1 and in the whitelist "sound\gungame\... allow_from_disk+check_crc"

I am having an issue where the random sounds wont play. (windows)

I have the files in the correct spot.
sv_pure is 0
I do not use ZBlock

random_winner_sounds.txt

gungame/tch/blkstacey.mp3
gungame/tch/commando.mp3
gungame/tch/crackhands.mp3
gungame/tch/daynight.mp3
gungame/tch/forthekill.mp3
gungame/tch/justdance.mp3
gungame/tch/manyvoice1.mp3
gungame/tch/manyvoice2.mp3
gungame/tch/thelive.mp3


Here is my default.ini in the sound_packs

[soundpack]
levelup = gungame/default/smb3_powerup.mp3
leveldown = gungame/default/smb3_powerdown.mp3
levelsteal = gungame/default/smb3_1-up.mp3
nadelevel = gungame/default/nade_level.mp3
knifelevel = gungame/tch/gotchaknife.mp3
multilevel = gungame/default/smb_star.mp3
welcome = gungame/tch/halcyon.mp3
handicap = gungame/default/gg_handicap.mp3
multikill = common/stuck1.wav
countDownBeep = hl1/fvox/beep.wav
roundwinner = @random
winner = @random
friendlyfire = npc/roller/mine/rmine_tossed1.wav


welcome = gungame/tch/halcyon.mp3 This line works great. I hear this music when I join the game. But winner and roundwinner wont play.

I do not have the 'Failed to load sound "xxxxxxxxxx", file probably missing from disk/repository' error in my console at all. And I can manually play all the files via the 'play' command in my console.

I have even changed the roundwinner from @random to gungame/tch/halcyon.mp3 and that did not work either...
