Re: Setting the audio output to surround does not actually output in surround
Not sure if this helps PC players but I had a similar problem on Xbox series x. No rear sorround sound.
My audio set up. (LGSK9Y) 5.1.2 or 7.1.2 with add on rear speakers. (I use 7.1.2)
My fix was to set the audio on the Xbox system to 5.1. uncompressed. (I had it in Dolby Atmos). The in game audio to speakers and sorround. After I did this the rear speakers started working. Also it seems that the upward firing speakers are still working. (Guessing receiving the Atmos signal maybe.)
If I set it to 7.1 uncompressed the rear stop working.
So disappointed this game does not support 7.1 the BF series always has some of the best sound.
