Not replicated on TT on PC. Will try Grand Prix mode practice, video if replicated.
Edit: Not replicated GP Mode, Multiplayer GP Mode, Local Multiplayer LAN mode. Drove to track in all practice sessions without soundtrack music and volume set to 10.

It’s probably only just effecting me on PS. Haven’t seen any other posts on it as I’m sure it would have been reported

It's not widely reported, but it's cross platform (PS and PC) which does suggest a game bug. The sound behaves oddly in my video it's kind of loud and echoed / muffled then goes silent.

But I can't replicate it the way you've both suggested.

Edit: Are you using two sound output devices? e.g. headphones and screen? I'm using only one, wired headphones on onboard audio.

@SteveJackson am using some turtle beach wireless headphones. I’ll check this weekend if it’s coming through if I switch audio to tv/soundbar.

I also should have said I’m using driver audio mix, not sure if that will have something to do with it. Will check if it appearing in other audio mix options

@SteveJackson did you test it at COTA by any chance? Seems that’s the track both me and @mantazzoLTU have this issue at. I know it’s not a very popular track so might explain the lack of reports if it’s a bug.
I will also test other tracks when I get the chance this weekend.

EDIT: ignore just saw your video, the replay was from COTA so you would have heard it if it effected you.
BTW, I know there is a setting called Spacial Audio or something like that, do you have that turned on?
