Similar MSFS 2020 issue: In MSFS2020 it works fine.

Bug description: In MSFS2024, the aircraft sound mutes when pressing ‘Back’ or ‘Resume’ to return to the flight after opening the menu during flight. If you go to menu a second time and then return to flight the sound comes back to normal. It acts like a sound toggle. This behavior occurs consistently and affects immersion.

Repro steps: 1. Load the aircraft in Free Flight on the runway.
2. Press ‘ESC’ (Toggle Pause) to open the in-game menu. Then click ‘Back’ or ‘Resume’ to return to the cockpit. Notice that the aircraft sounds are muted.
3. Press ‘ESC’ again to open the menu. Click ‘Back’ or ‘Resume’ to return to the cockpit once more. This time, the sounds return to normal.
