No-Sound in Battlefield 5 & One
Hey, folks.
Please help a fellow out. I've tried everything I can think of...
Issue Run Down
In Battlefield 5 the sounds is present from the moment I see BF5 splash screen, there is also sound in every part of the menu, and in warstories: both during the cutscenes and during actual gameplay.
But the moment I begin joining and online game, I hear the sound during loading but once I am looking at the spawn/class screen, it cuts out.
An interesting point is that when I switch from Stereo to Regular (marked blue X) the sound returns, but as the name suggests, it's of no stereo/HD quality and it just sounds atrocious, it is unplayable in such state.
In Battlefield One, there is no sound at all, anywhere. Unless I switch from Stereo to Regular.
Things I have tried, to fix this
I've updated Realtek HD Audio drivers
Tried uninstalling Realtek HD Audio Manager, and tried reinstalling it
Updated Windows (legit copy)
- Updated Nvidia drivers, and drivers for my wireless headset
Repairing the game
Ran the sound through headphones and speakers
Turning off/on Sound Enhancements in the Windows sound options
Running Troubleshoot for the Sound
Things I am holding off from trying
Reinstalling the game in its entirety - because my inet is bad. It took me 2.5 nights to download the game as it is. And anyway, surely Repairing the game would've found the problem.
This is only present with the Battlefield series. The sound works fine in any other game I've tested in BlizzardApp and Steam.
Interesting point is that when Battlefield 5 or One are running, and my headset is set to Stereo; no other sound works either, aka youtube, my music. But once I exit out of Battlefield, then all other sounds works again. It seems that this is not just no-sound bug within the game, it seems as thou the Battlefield client itself is interfering with my sound
I had a look through the other thread, titled Battlefield V's Known issues, and this issue is not listed there.
DxDiag is attached
I would be appreciate any help you can provide.
Thank you!
In case anyone who has this issue was wondering, I defaulted my Realtek settings and my sound returned to in-game play. I guess when i was "discovering" the different sounds with my headphones, the changes interrupted sound within the game. In the lobby and mission overviews, sound was present. Once you joined a game, there would be no sound - zip, ziltch, nada...Defaulting the Realtek options fixed that. Hope this helps...
