I tried multiple times going into Circuit of the Americas in Multiplayer Practice session (making multiple lobbies), and every time it kept playing Session Music in my ears. This hasn't happened on other tracks so far.What is your 16 digit Report Code? GAAM-TRAC-PSHD-SCSECan you please provide the name of your current internet service provider?Which area is the bug/glitch in? MultiplayerDid you have cross-play enabled? YesSteps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1) Go into Multiplayer on LAN Game and host a lobby. 2) While setting up lobby, select Texas track and at least Practice Session. For my experience, I used the "generic" car. 3) Now while in Practice session, it's enough to go out. Session Music will keep playing even when you're out on track.What happens when the bug occurs? The Session Music keeps playing over the top, even when driving the car out on track or when sitting in the pits.What do you expect to see? Session Music should not be playing in my ears as well as it does, plus it shouldn't be playing while I was out on track.If necessary, I can provide video footage of this bug. I tried another track in the same gameplay session (Brazil) and it didn't happen there, so I think this might be some sort of glitch for this track only.

I sort of forgot about this topic, sorry 😅Anyway, here's a video of mine - I did record it way back when I first reported this bug, it still does happen (haven't tried on patch 1.08 yet, haven't had much time due to work) - that even happened on a quick offline 5 lap race in F1 World, I just didn't record it.You can see my Audio Settings at 0:25, they haven't changed from then. This was Multiplayer Practice session (this was on LAN lobby, but same happens in normal Multiplayer lobby also), but it does happen in any session it seemsI suspect there may be something wrong with the Driver Onboard Mix trigger for COTA, so it keeps playing the Session Music all the time. If I recall correctly I encountered the same issue on another track also, but I'll have to check if necessary.Just to also add for extra detail, I play on a laptop, but I use separate USB Headset which is my main audio device.If necessary, I can try to give some more details in some way.

When I can retest, we'll find it between us but USB audio is not something I use either.

@mantazzoLTU @Monzstar83 not being funny, but did you know this setting existed? Toggle it?Cos that's the only way I can make music happen at CoTA, but it responds normally for me. Off is off, on is on etc.

Can't replicate. Post a dxdiag please including make and model of mainboard, thanks.

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?
