Missing Broadcast Commentary

Hi,

I recently purchased Madden 23 during the winter holiday sale. I am having an issue where I do not hear any broadcast commentary during my games. So far I have tried looking into the audio settings to make sure there is no issue. Please advise on what I should do.

Thanks!

Julian

    I don't have access to Madden on a PC so I really don't know, but if that is a setting you can change, it would be in the audio settings. Are your audio drivers up to date? Also, have you tried using a headset? If so, does commentary work there?

    Hi there, @324eac7e67e371c5 

    I moved your message to the Madden 23 boards. It was posted on the Madden Mobile boards.

    On to your issue... normally, this happens when your audio settings are on 5.1 sound when you only have a stereo set up. Please check all your audio settings, not just in game, to make sure they are set to stereo. Let me know what happens. Thanks!

  • I believe I have verified my PC is set to stereo on the output speakers. Where can I verify this for the in-game audio?

    Hello, @Nihowcool_29 

    Check your audio settings. If they are set to 5.1 or 7.1, but don't have an accompanying home theater system, you won't hear the commentary. This is because it's trying to be played through a center speaker. If you don't have one, no commentary will be heard. Change the audio output to stereo and that should resolve it.

  • Audio settings in the game or Xbox or tv? Please be more specific.

    Please see my previous response regarding your Xbox audio settings.

    funny enough it actually wasn't this at ALL whatsoever that fixed my problem. it was in my windows 11 seettings- system- sound- and i had to change my audio output from 7.1 to stereo in order for it to work. it also fixed my missing dialogue from watch dogs: 2, so.

    Sorry about that. I mistakenly thought you were on Xbox. Regardless, glad to hear you got it resolved. Good luck and have fun!
