Sometimes I accidentally hit certain hotkey combination and the sounds are gone while playing the game. I don't know what combo it was to enable sounds again, I have to do it through menus. Anybody had the same problem?

Also not what you're asking for but in replays

Q - Disable minimap
W - Disable unit window
E - Disable top right window
R - Disable right hand bar
Alt + Y - Disable timer.
F6 - Reset Zoom

In general remastered:

F5 - Change graphics!

Not to be rude but you really didn't know that? Those combinations were one of the first things I learned when I started playing BW ages ago.

Not sure what's wrong with me but learning how to turn off unit sounds while in game using a hotkey (so I can do it during intense battles) somehow was not on my list of first things to learn.

On a serious note I think it's a poor decision to use Ctrl + something for both to assign unit control groups and as a hotkey modifier.

Personally rhe most useful hotkeys are F10 for menu, Ctrl+S for sound, Ctrl+M for music, Ctrl+Alt+T for the TR label, and A in replays for toggling on off any panels
