[Glitch] No sound at all

The game refuses to produce any sound at all for me on my iPad mini Retina. No sound effects, no music, nothing. iPads volume is up as are the in-app volume settings (changing these settings does nothing at all). Ive uninstalled and redownloaded 3 times now to no avail. Havent seen any other reports of this issue, so I must just be unlucky.

Game looks good. Controls are not perfect but are competent. Id really like to play this game but it loses quite a bit of its punch when silenced.
