Audio Delay/Desync

Lately, my audio has been having major issues. Some things like reloading, vehicles, defibs, voicelines, etc., seem to trigger really late or sometimes not at all, while other things like gunshots an...

To sum up this whole post with replies, if you are having this same issue it seems to be tied to overheating storage when running BF6 due to the game constantly streaming data between matches and reloading everything every match. I purchased a new almost identical SSD to my old one but with a heatsink as opposed to without in the case of my old SSD and have had no issues since. As far as I’ve seen, the only full proof fix is to make sure your storage is staying properly cooled since BF6 is so intense on it. Otherwise if you don’t have storage with a decent heatsink or can’t quite get one right now, deleting all HD textures in the games dlc tab seems to be a decent workaround.

So recently I did a full redownload of the game since I had previously opted not to download redsec and later deleted the campaign as well after I finished it since they were (allegedly) optional downloads. What I found was that after redownloading EVERYTHING and not just MP, my audio worked perfectly for the last 3 or so days so I assumed that might’ve been the issue. But earlier today the issue reappeared and oddly enough this time, NOTHING will work. Where as previously redownloading has been a temporary, albeit unreliable fix, it now does nothing. My audio is now completely screwed with no fix at all that I’ve found through all the methods mentioned previously. I am at my absolute wits end with this bug and have searched high and low on manner of subreddit, forum, twitter post, etc for ANYTHING even resembling a fix or even so much as acknowledgement of the bug to no avail so for now deleting BF6 and praying that EA someday decides to make a functioning game (unlikely) is my only course of action.

All that to say, if you are having this same issue and don’t have absolutely everything downloaded for BF6 (campaign, MP, Redsec, and all additional texture packs etc.) maybe download those and see if it fixes your issue as it’s the closest thing to “fix” that I’ve found so far. Hopefully you’ll have better luck than me.

For me its kinda random, I can't 100% reproduce issue. Yesterday I played for almost 2 hours and everything was more less fine, maybe it was there but less noticeable.

Same for me in the sense that I can’t seem to reproduce it. Once it starts for me, it doesn’t stop and I haven’t been able to pin down what is triggering it. It seems to be completely random though I doubt it is. I did another full redownload and it’s working again so I really just don’t know at this point, I’m sure it’ll bug out again eventually.

  Try removing HD textures, I've tried couple games so far and everything works as expected. No audio dropout/delay.

    Yea removing the HD textures does seem to have fixed it. I went into the dlc tab on steam and got rid of everything labeled HD textures and I haven’t had audio issues since, and honestly the game looks the exact same so I don’t really know what the point of those almost 40 gigs worth of textures was for but I’m glad it’s fixed now. There’s still some stuff that’s off like in menu clicks when customizing guns and the defib audio but from what I’ve gathered online those are frequent issues that tons of people are having so I’m sure they’re unrelated. Thank you so much for the fix, I’ve been losing it at this glitch for weeks now.
