Summary	05325: skychut: External sound sample file not working
Description	External sound samples are not working for this game. all the other games have sound from the same sample file.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional Information	the file name for the sample is: ipminvad I discovered from a post from RetroRoms that the games that worked has a size of 6kb. while this games has a size of 10kb. but this was on an old version of MAME. so I don't really know what is working or what is old. this could be a bug or I just have the wrong file size. what do you guys think? here is the post: http://www.retroroms.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=22695

This means that there may an outlay for samples and they may be named similarly to others, they are not a match nor are intended to match this game. AFAIK, no actual samples have ever been made for this game. So, reporting that there are missing samples is not an emulation issue because they are not intended to be used. Unfortunately, there is no hash checking for samples and you can technically use whatever you want provided the names match.
