eax dll 3.0.6.6 download
Once you've downloaded "eax.dll" 3.0.6.6, rename the "eax.dll" in your GTA:SA directory to something else of your choosing, then copy the "eax.dll" that you just downloaded into the GTA:SA directory. At this point, if you've turned down your hardware acceleration, turn it back on.
I have the Creative SB Live! soundcard and I had been having similar problems reported by others.. audio cutting out, some sounds worked great, others non existent. I tried some of the things others suggested, replacing the eax.dll file (be careful with that, the only version 3.066 I found was downloadable from a pay site)., tried turning off hardware acceleration, none of that worked.
I have a fairly old (year 2000-2001) Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live! with Cambridge Soundwords 5.1 surround sound speakers. Swapping the eax.dll with v3.x version from DLL-Files.com has fixed most of the sound problems. Before all the SFX would stop playing after a few minutes in the game, only cutscenes and radio would still play. I made a backup of the DLL which comes with GTASA, upzipped the downloaded one to the GTA San Andreas folder and it all seemed to work fine. 2ff7e9595c
