Campaign Narrative Voices Keep Dropping out

When playing the campaign the narrative voice keep constantly dropping out in the cut scenes, sometimes you don't even know what you need to do because the of it.

I'm not sure if all narrative should have subtitles, but if they do then this is also effected.

What made no difference

  • Using both onboard and HDMI sound devices
  • Changing the device quality to 16bit 44khz from usual studio quality
  • Updating to the latest Nvidia HDMI drivers
  • Setting spatial sound to off
  • Verify integrity of game files
  • Full screen and borderless display
  • Restarting from a checkpoints
  • Restarting the game, sometimes helps for a minute but then starts failing again

Details of times it's particularly noticeable in the spoiler block as it describes campaign components

Spoiler

One place in particular is during the rescue of the president where the RIB gets hit by an RPG. I usually start to loose it just after the RPG, restarting the game totally seems to get a bit further, but by the time you get knocked down by Kincaid its pretty much guaranteed to have dropped out. 

This is easy to test as just after a checkpoint, playing back multiple times, its seems random when the drop out occurs. Not all sound is impacted, but narrative is particularly noticeable. In other areas it seems to affect the character you play more than others, for example when speak to Kincaid first on the tablet, I got his voice but not my own.

  • Been having the same issue.  Doesn't look like many people are talking about it though, wondering if it's not widespread?

    • Windows 11 Pro
    • Geforce RTX 4080 Laptop
    • Core i9-14900HX
    • Playing through Steam
    • Sony WH-1000XM3 Bluetooth Headphones (don't have any wired headphones with me to try)
