Battlefield 3 and 4 with no sound at all on W11 (EA launcher version)
So, I just tried to replay BF 3 and 4 after a long time and I'm facing an audio issue that I don't know how it could be addressed.
I have downloaded through EA desktop app and both game are completely muted. I've tried many troubleshooting, disabled inactive sound devices on windows, tried with different sound outputs , reinstalled audio drivers, tried to launch as an admin, tried compatibility mode for win 7 and 8. Nothing seems to work. There is something I noticed, in BF 3 specifically, the game doesn't even show as an app on windows sound mixer, kinda like the OS isn't even recognizing it is running for some reason.
This issue does not happen on any other game at all. No antivirus software at all.
Has anybody faced anything similar? any suggestions on how to fix this?
Specs:
R7 9700x

SSD nvme 1TB kingston

External Audio card - Arturia MiniFuse2
Many thanks in advance!
Yeah I've had everything but the main input and output disabled. I managed to solve it by restarting windows in safe mode without network and uninstalling every Audio and video driver and doing another clean install, It turns out that the windows update was for some reason downloading generic drivers over my custom audio drivers for the minifuse2, so I disabled the auto driver update. What I find weird is that this only happened in these 2 games. thanks for the answer anyways.
