We expect music for the main menu to happen first. Ambient music while flying or building would probably happen next. Not sure if we need any major changes to the sound engine first. The rest of the sounds and music in game will certainly require it.

I'll just throw this idea out there as a discussion starter:
I can imagine a great way of incorporating music in the game in the best way possible. The idea would basically be similar to what Bethesda does in the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series: Ambient non-intrusive background music in high volume (just look at the Skyrim soundtrack, there's 3 hours of this Ambient stuff), which would obviously be more Space-esque, punctuated with "Battle" music that appears when an enemy target signature enters your sector. When the battle is over, the music seamlessly transitions back to the ambient background music.
