Shield sound won't apply [Solved]

I have created a custom shield impact sound effect called "com_sfx_shield_sound2" when blaster bolts hit the shield from the shield dispenser.
But when I shoot the shield the blaster won't play the new sound but instead plays the standard sfx when the bolt hits the ground.
I changed this line in my com_weap_inf_rifle.odf:
ImpactEffectShield = "com_sfx_shield_sound2"
I also have no other soundeffects in the child odfs.
The world also loads my sound file.
Does anybody know what it could be?

This line is for the impact
effect, not for the sound. I don't think you can setup different sounds for different impacts.

You can set a sound cue for a particle emitter to play. See here:

FX (particle effects)
===============================================================================
It is possible to attach an ambient sound to a particle effect. This is
performed by modifying the SoundName("soundPropertyID") property of the
ParticleEmitter() section in an .fx file. For example...
ParticleEmitter("BlackSmoke")
{
MaxParticles(20000.0000,20000.0000);
StartDelay(0.0000,0.0000);
BurstDelay(0.5000, 0.5000);
BurstCount(1.0000,1.0000);
MaxLodDist(1000.0000);
MinLodDist(800.0000);
SoundName("com_amb_heavyfire");
Size(1.0000, 1.0000);
Hue(255.0000, 255.0000);
Saturation(255.0000, 255.0000);
Value(255.0000, 255.0000);
Alpha(255.0000, 255.0000);

It's still not working.
I added this line in my weapon_ord.odf
ImpactEffectShield = "com_sfx_shieldimpact_sm"
and I linked my custom sound to the effect. There's nothing wrong with the sound implementing to the map as I already use custom sounds.
There must be something wrong with the deployable shield object. It's labeled as ClassLabel = shield.
Do you know where I can inspect the propeties of the class labels?
EDIT
Nvm, the sound was just to quiet. Topic solved
