Use headphones only with any virtual surround features turned off.

This is a demonstration of Unreal: Return to Na Pali with the 227i and OpenAL Soft patch for binaural audio and occlusions (see links below). This expansion pack isn't remembered as fondly as the main game...and for good reason. It's unbalanced to the point where you will have to savescum your way out of numerous levels on Unreal difficulty. The only reason it's worth playing at all is the inclusion of Cliff Bleszinski's unfinished maps. Why they gave Unreal II to Legend Entertainment after this flop is beyond me. Oh well, at least the binaural audio is still amazing.
