Describe the issue

1.OPL startup music and button sounds do not work when enabled.

2.MX4SIO compatibility regression: Medal of Honor: Rising Sun (SLAJ_250.30) fails to run (works in OPL 2048). Additionally, vibration does not work in SMB mode.

3.MX4SIO + SMB/USB HDD mode issues:God of War 1 & 2 (Chinese D5 versions) have no audio and cannot launch from the menu.

4.MX4SIO lacks UTF-8/GBK encoding support – It should be possible to implement this by converting filenames after reading them in gui.c. For example:

char *utf8_name = convert_to_utf8(entry->d_name); // Assume convert_to_utf8 is a custom function
add_game_to_list(utf8_name);
This could potentially enable proper Chinese character display in the game list!
