    Add that to your "game properties / command line options"

  • Hey there, getting the same problem on launch of S15 of apex, except this time the game wont boot if I have the '+miles_channels 2' exception, any clues as to how to fix it? (this is the error code) 

    Couldn't initialize sound

    Please make sure you have a sound playback device that is enabled and properly configured

    Failed in: MilesDriverCreate

    Miles output follows:

    [WASAPI] Output channels and sample rate must match the endpoint format

    Now the sound is fixed (says stereo in game) I run DXDIAG and added the DX12 command in launch options   -eac_launcher_settings SettingsDX12.json

    Hope this will help others!

    Same problem here the game crash with  +miles_channels 2 command on steam and EA app.

    And in the settings.cfg from the location ( user\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local i have this  "sound_num_speakers "2" and in game setting says surround 7.1

    At this point i have no clue and it's hard to play with surround on stereo headset and yes my windows audio is on stereo
