No they didn't, it's one of the best sounds I love, hearing the acft start first the whine and then the engine coming to life when a more deeper sound takes over!! It's one reason I will always choose to start the engine, if not cold and dark!!

I am not sure if you should be able to play that in a player and it lasts forever, the sound files are used differently in FS. If you are not able to hear them in FSX that's a different story, posting in the AVSIM/PMDG forums might help. But before you do that, I would suggest you check your sound apparatus and see if you can listen to other engines, then switch to PMDG, press Q twice to make sure the sounds are on and if worse case, maybe even try a reinstall before you go to the forums, as most likely that will be one of the suggestions!!
