Sound board test button gives no sound: normal on Joust
On Joust, pressing the diagnostic button on the sound board produces no sound even on a working board, because the game's sound ROM is unique and does not run that test. Use the game's own sound test, or ground the sound select inputs one at a time, to check the board instead.
