Battlefield V - No Audio Bug

I downloaded Battlefield V on my PC recently, and have been having a lot of fun playing it. Unfortunately, I cant anymore. Out of nowhere, whenever I load into a multiplayer game of any sorts, Conquest, Practice Range, etc, my entire PC loses ALL of its audio. Discord, Youtube, Spotify, Battlefield V itself, every bit of audio is gone, until I close down the game. What happened, out of Nowhere, that caused this bug??

    Windows Update probably incorrectly updated the sound driver. Try to download the sound driver from the website of your motherboard manufacturer, then disconnect the Internet, install the sound drivers from the installer, restart the computer. I hope it will help. Motherboard drivers are so much nastier than GPU drivers that after uninstalling they like to insert incorrect default drivers from Windows, but if you don't have sound anyway, what's the harm in trying? If this doesn't help, look for a solution on Google, but it's definitely the driver's fault.

    For correct delete audio drivers use this method.

    1. Download audio drivers from your motherboard manufacturer's website & save this in location where you will find audio installer easly.

    2. Download Display Driver Uninstaller program from here : https://www.guru3d.com/download/display-driver-uninstaller-download/ & save this in place where you will find it easly

    3. After end downloading --> Unplug/ disconnect/ disable Wifi cable to block auto download of faulty drivers from Windows Update.

    4. Extract it, later open  Open Display Driver Uninstaller.exe. and do everything folow attached screen  Manual.jpg

    5. After uninstalling the drivers according to the attached screen call Manual.jpg, open the Audio driver installation file you downloaded from the manufacturer's website and install offline it, then restart the computer. After that, reconnect to the Internet and enjoy the game.

    NOTE:

    In point 6 in the screenshot, select Audio instead of GPU 🙂 The rest remains unchanged.

    I recommend creating a restore point (not a backup, but a restore point) before this operation in Windows, so that you can easily restore it before trying to uninstall the incorrect drivers and install the correct drivers.

    Let us know if this solution helped.
