Sometimes, when I start the game with the launcher, the sound will be set to off in the configuration settings, with no apparent reason as to why, and no way to change it. Exiting and restarting usually fixes it. Sorry, but you probably won't be able to reproduce this one.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
Please force a crash by pressing F3 + C for 10 seconds while ingame and attach the crash report here.
Please attach the complete output of the "Development console" of the launcher. CTRL-A, CTRL-C there, CTRL-V in the ticket.
