No Enemy Sound in Apex

Any encounter with the enemy team I hear no gunshots or footsteps. BUt I do hear my own shots and steps as well as my teammates and the environment. I literally only do not hear the enemies sounds. I have repaired game files, updated drivers, and uninstalled and reinstalled.. Please help.

  • I just happened to fix this myself, if you go down and open up your sound settings> playback tab > select your headphones > spatial sound> and turn on 7.1 virtual surround sound with windows sonic it should start to sound how its meant to. Hope this helps!

    am almost 99% sure  Apex is forcing surround sound even if you don't have surround sound making sounds that is behind you impossible to hear ..i am 25 year professional sound engineer and know a thing or to  about this subject

    i have to agree with you  i am a Professional sound engineer and i think the game is forcing surround sound even those you play on stereo hence making sound  that is behind you not play for  some objects like another player

    these solutions will nto work on a audio interface because the  window driver only has stereo ..the Game cant use ASIO ..the game play surround sound  even if your donor have the hardware  and config  is set to 2 speakers  i am 100% sure of it 

  • Anyone suggest help with this? I'm on PS4 and don't hear steps particularly Xbox players, if it's PS4 enemy no issues. I have a steel series arctis five wired do I have to update something?? Please help it's frustrating I get no replies

    I’ll believe it when I hear it, never hear anything about sound being fixed, never will.
