Playing SB: Sound On or Off?

Simple enough.

I typically like the sound on, but I've found that if you want to get through a scenario against the AI quicker, I use the Faster AI Processing, which eliminates sounds.

Since I do most of my playing on my laptop during my lunches, I play with headphones. The coolest part of SB is hearing the background combat sounds while you're thinking about your next moves. The Vietnam and TOD sound don't thrill me as much, the sound of the bugs and the chattering of the VC voices can be distracting, but the others with the faint explosions, rifle shots and MG fire is really cool, I think.
