    I've done everything you said before already, but you gave me a hint.

    I have found out it might be releated to a pre-HDMI config. I have began to use my HDMI audio output just recently and it could be releated to a config file in "My documents" directory. I deleted the entire folder "Battlefield 4" and I let the game decide what new settings should be. I assume it could he been due to an old line in config file I am using motherboard's sound card instead of my monitor's one. I am testing it now. So far I am in-game for 40 minutes and sound works flawlessly. I am using LG IPS 225. I will let you know if it has fixed my issue ( I hope it did, because it's very annoying being forced to restart the game in order to get the sound back.

Hello

Try to make such actions:

If you have sound coming from the graphics card, then reinstall the driver for your video card.

If you have a sound card, then reinstall the driver for it.

Check for the presence of fresh Windows updates.

If you have Windows 64-bit, then select the appropriate item in origin. http://i.imgur.com/bFKCx3A.png

Reinstall the game.

If my advice has helped you, then do not forget to click XP.😕mileyhappy:
