Sound problems for me as well. This is for Mass Effect 1. The game will only put out 2.1 sound and the sound mix is definitely broken in some way. Environmental noises will not happen if I am facing them directly. The ground fires on Eden Prime are an example. Character dialogue during elevator rides is barely audible, such that I would have to crank the volume sky high. In game menu sounds are not audible (such as mousing over menu sections). Environment and ambient noise is mostly very quiet. SFX from gunshots or skills seems quite loud relative to everything else.
I am playing the game on PC directly from the EA Origin launcher. Using an Nvidia GTX 1080 TI, with hdmi straight to a Denon AVR. All drivers are up to date. I have double checked all Windows settings and avr settings to make sure nothing is manipulating the sound.
I hope this get fixed.
