Re: Audio problems

Update: I reinstalled all audio drivers,nothing works. I also tried to close Nahimic and restart the computer as someone described, that didn't work either.

    Hey @STstefEF

    Does this happen with any other games besides Battlefield 1?

    Have you gone into your Origin Settings, and made sure you have the correct input / output devices selected for your Audio?

    Go to Origin, Application Settings, More, and Voice, and make sure that the correct ones are selected.

    I would also check the Audio settings in game, and switch around the different selections to see if it changes anything.

    Thanks 🙂

    Hi @iluminatethesky ,

    No just Battlefield 1.

    And I've looked for the tab "More" or Voice but I cannot find it. And the settings in game don't change anything either.

    @STstefEF

    I tried looking for it as well, and it looks like it was removed from Origin.

    Let me raise this issue, and see if I can find out more information on how to resolve this.

    Thanks 🙂

    Can I check what version of Nahimic you have? A driver reinstall should normally help. 

    Cal I check what output device you use? If you use a 3.5mm Jack can you try swapping to a USB speaker, or vice versa, to check if that's a factor at all?

    Thanks. 

  • Hey @EA_David ,

    I have Nihamic version 1.3.11.

    And I have both a USB and 3.5mm Jack, I'm using a Razer Kraken Tournament Edition wich has both a dongle with USB plug and the headphones wich can be detached so you can plug the 3.5mm jack in. With both outputs I have the problem, also tried with different headsets (bluetooth and jack) and the problem is still there.

  • Okay, so I was testing a bit with other headphones and when I went back to my regular Nahimic didn't recognise it at first and the sound worked completely fine. But when I optimized the headphones with Nahimic the sound got all weird again.

    So I guess the problem is Nahimic...

  • So the solution was to remove the 1.6 update of Nahimic, I'm currently on the 1.3 version and the sound works fine now!

    Thanks for the help!

    how do you change the nahimic driver? 

    i tried searching on the web it keeps telling me to download it on the windows store

  • Hi @xJYSSx ,

    Right klick on the windows icon > Device Manager > Software Components and then you'll see a program called "A-Volute Nh3 Audio Effects Component". Right klick on this and delete the updates.
