Hey, i'm only reading the technical forums of other sides 
I am glad what this fix work.
If you have some money to spend, get rid of the mainboard sound an buy a X-Fi Gamer (just the cheapest Card with EAX 5.0).
Less Problems and much better sound, the screaming of the TIEs is even with only a stereo headset incredible.

I set everything on low, copy and past this:
AudioSettings.setVoipEnabled 0
AudioSettings.setVoipPlaybackVolume 1
AudioSettings.setVoipCaptureVolume 0.509676
AudioSettings.setVoipCaptureThreshold 0.1
AudioSettings.setVoipBoostEnabled 1
AudioSettings.setVoipUsePushToTalk 1
AudioSettings.setProvider "software"
AudioSettings.setSoundQuality "Low"
AudioSettings.setEffectsVolume 0.400015
AudioSettings.setMusicVolume 0
AudioSettings.setHelpVoiceVolume 1
AudioSettings.setEnglishOnlyVoices 0
AudioSettings.setEnableEAX 0
000x = There are up to 4 folders, named 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004. One for each soldier you had created.
Audio.con is a .txt file, you can open & save it with the editor. (This applies to all .con files)
]]>Hm, try to set Audio on lowest level (Software), if it don't work with the ingame Options edit your Audio.con.
(CTD because Hardware Audio Acceleration is not uncommon, some games - like Starlacer - are plagued with this problem)Do you use a dedicate Soundcard (like the Creative X-Fi ?) or Onboard-Sound ?
If setting the Sound to Software works, use a newer driver to get the Hardware Sound working (some times part of the mainboard drivers ).Also be sure what your VOIP Option is off. Some routers don't like the traffic from the BF 2 / BF 2142 VOIP and cut the connetion.
But usually this leads to "There is a problem with your connection", not a CTD.
It would really be strange if you can get to the audio settings in Vanilla without crashing, but yes that would definitely be narrowing things down.

Ok, here's something interesting. The game also crashes whenever I go into options and click on audio. I don't know if that info will help you guys to know what is wrong...
]]>If it works, then you'll know for sure the problem is somewhere in the shortcut. The BF2 launcher deal is unusual, haven't seen that one before...
