Crash when creating a female character
My problem
When I want to create a female character, my character creation crashes. This occurs after selecting a gender, race and background and then clicking on the button to go to the next screen. I have no problems when creating a male character.
This problem started a while ago, though I had been able to create and play with a female character prior to that.

My game
Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition. Downloaded and installed through Origin.
Other info
In some threads it was mentioned that disabling the sound caused this problem. I have a problem relating to te sound as well, so maybe it's connected. When I start Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition, you get this popup with Configure/Support/Instal etc. The sound there works fine, but as soon as I press the Play-button, the sound disappears and doesn't return. I looked at my sound settings in game and in the task bar, but I haven't muted DA:O. Strangely enough DA:O disappears from my mixer settings when I press Play.
Things I have tried
- Updating my drivers.
- Removing and then installing the game.
- Removing all mods.
- Applying patch 1.5
