Perhaps you can have a case where it happens while you may be recording an .inp and see if it plays back the same way and post here if it always fails to trigger the jingle? Not sure if any Dev will want to look into something that cannot be reliably triggered in some way.

In version 0.122, both gameplay and the sound when inserting a coin are perfect! I really don't understand why Zsolt Vasvary did that 'major driver cleanup' in MAME version 0.123, which clearly made things worse. After doing these tests I strongly suggest that we revert this driver back to the 0.122 one.
