Windows freezing with BF5 and BF1 with Sound Blaster Audigy Rx/5 audio card

Thank you for posting!  I thought either my sound card died or my mobo/PSU was starting to go.  I have a X-fi Titanium HD and about a week and a half ago when the anti-cheat got updated, my audio started completely cutting out a few minutes into a game, but I didn't make that connection.  All other audio devices work, but I have to reboot the PC to get the X-fi card to work again.  I tried another card, same issue.  Updated bios, updated chipset drivers, unplugged USB devices, etc.  At first I was grieving that maybe my HD had bit the dust until I tried another Sound Blaster card that behaved the exact same.  Then I was wide eyed thinking it may be my PSU going or worse...my motherboard (was thinking maybe the card was losing power).  But like you, I tried BF4 and it was perfectly fine.  But BF1 and BFV with the new update...audio dropout.  So, it does appear to be an issue with the new EA anticheat update.  I was going out of my mind.  Still sucks, but at least now we seem to know the culprit.

Yep, i have an Asus Xonar D2X sound card, and BF1 and BFV freezing my pc when i try to start them. 

Same thing. Sound drops out in BF 1 in BF 5 within 3 minutes after launch.  SB X-Fi Xtreme audio

I confirm, it looks like the problem has been resolved, and the game is running stably. The only thing is that I had to reinstall the drivers on the sound card. thanks for the answers and of course thanks to EA, better late than never.

Yep.  I didn't see an update or anything but just played a full round of BFV and my audio never dropped out.

Hello,

Since early june, my sound crash on Apex Legends with soundcard: "Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional Series"

No solution at today for resolve this issue. but still so many cheaters in the game...very effective EAC
