Product: F1 23Platform:PCPlease specify your platform model. PCSummarize your bug Session music is playing all the time (even when driving the car) while racing in Texas (Circuit of the Americas). 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.

Haven’t seen any other posts on it as I’m sure it would have been reportedIt'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.Edit: Might be related https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Bug-Reports/Driver-Career-and-MyTeam-modes-don-t-use-EA-playlist/m-p/12676154

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.

@SteveJackson will toggle it also and see the results. IIRC correctly I do have this on, but prrior to the new patch this wasn’t causing issues for me on other tracks

I mean, I have it On and I don't have issues on most other tracks like I have in COTA... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So I ran some basic tests as below
From my limited testing, the main takeaways are;
- turning session music off will ensure music is not played when in garage/ on track
- turning music level to 0 will do the same
- session music and music spacialisation settings are having a bearing on this issue, but it is track dependent

Summarize your bug The ambient music is very loud around the garage and most of the track in Texas. Ambient music is supressed when using Xbox Game DVR or streaming, so it can't be captured in videos. It happens in all game modes.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? In "Audio Settings", set "Session Music" to "On". Go to TT. Go to Texas. Loud music will be playing in the garage. Drive. Loud music will be playing around most of the track.
What happens when the bug occurs? Loud music plays around the garage and most of the track.
What do you expect to see? The music should not be louder than at other tracks.

@REDRA-11 Same on PC. Does not disturb me around the garage, but on some corners around the track it is distracting

Just has to sit through an entire community event race listening to the music being blasted around the track. @EA_Groguet

@REDRA-11 @QUALLENFISCH Not saying it's not an issue but what audio equipment do you have?
Plus this is an old issue, so I'll try to merge the old thread.
Edit: Merge done.
