Product: Battlefield 2042Platform:Xbox Series XPlease specify your platform model. Microsoft Xbox Series XAre you using any software with an overlay? NoWhich part of the game is the issue happening in? MultiplayerWhich part of the mode? ConquestPlease select your region North AmericaOn which server did this happen? AllWhen did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) Since Day 1Summarize your bug No Dolby Atmos output. Dolby Atmos signal is sent from my Xbox to my receiver/TV with every other Atmos enabled game on my console such as Halo Infinite, so this is not a receiver/TV issue or a console issue. This is every game mode. Every menu How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Run the game on an Xbox Series X with an Atmos enabled recieverWhat happens when the bug occurs? No Atmos. Only Dolby SurroundWhat should be happening instead? Dolby Atmos outputNO DOLBY ATMOS

@G-Recons And yes, I am set for Auto. BF is not sending a Atmos signal out. Yet all others such as Halo Infinite are…,this is a game issue not hardware as if it was hardware other games would have the issue as well

You miss the part where Atmos works in every other game on my console just fine? There is no Atmos output from BF only.BF has no option for this even. Just Surround or Stereo

@G-Recons Xbox Series X to an Onkyo NR6100 receiver via HDMI.As I said, all other Atmos content on the Xbox works just fine such as Halo Infinite. The only application that does not is BF

@patchkno Set your Dolby Atmos on both on console and output then on battlefield choose auto and the output type speaker/headphone etc.The auto will output based on your output device

I have the same Problem. I'm using a dolby atmos Soundbar from Samsung, the Q950. No sound from the rear speakers.

Have now tried direct to Atmos enabled Tv with pass through and still no Atmos. Have tried a second Atmos enabled tuner and no joy.
However Halo is sending Atmos as well as the Dolby app. Obviously a software issue.

I have a denon avr3600h, xbox x and a LG OLED CX, and get atmoss on all of my enabled apps apart from Battelfied, BUT LETS BE HONEST EA
you arnt interested in repairing issues that you had sold people on, instead you are just rolling out junk addons.
I have loved BF For years but this is the last one im going to buy. (ISNT THAT A SHAME)
