Default Spektrum receiver question

Hi, First off, I want to say sorry now if this has been asked already or has been pointed out.

I am using my Spektrum DX9 radio to control my Tiger (Tamiya Full Options Kit) tank. Trouble is, the remote engine start/stop sound does not work anymore. The sound now only comes on when I switch the tank on and off.
I think I read somewhere that this is expected. I don't know why.

I'm using a DSMX 6 channel receiver (park flyer).

Why is this?


-----------------------------
Now, I found an old (few years old) Orange (Spektrum clone sold by Hobbyking) DSM2 receiver (6 channel) so I wanted to put this on my King Tiger tank just to play around. I installed it tonight and lo and behold: the remote engine start/stop sound worked! It's so cool so I moved this to my Tiger (my favorite tank of the two).

So now.. again, my question is, why and how?

Anyone know? Is it's because of the DSM2 mode?
