The fraction is multiplied by 255 and handed to the speech channel as it is read, and again whenever the slider moves. Speech is refused outright while the resulting volume is zero or below, so nothing is queued and nothing is spoken. The fraction covers the EVA announcements and the multiplayer taunts; unit responses are sound effects and follow SoundVolume instead.

The read holds the fraction to 1 at the top but not at the bottom, so a negative figure is stored as written and simply silences the speech.

The sound options dialog offers the fraction as a ten-step slider, and leaving the options screen behind it writes the setting back to sun.ini. Moving that slider plays a taunt back as feedback while a game is running, and a beep otherwise.
