Music inaudible in free roam

Question

Hello, I have a problem with music in nfs heat. It is at all times stuck in "there's a dialog going on so I'll lower my volume" state. It's like listening to music that your neighbour is playing behind 3 walls. In most of the races the music is just fine (I had same issue in one race at the beginning but for now it's fine). It's a bummer cause I like most of the soundtrack in this game and I want to listen to it while driving from one race to another.
My spec:
Ryzen 5 1600
RX 570
16GB RAM
Game's installed on an SSD

All the drivers are up-to-date

I checked my headphone settings in windows and they're in stereo mode (not 7.1, 5.1 or anything else)
I changed in-game settings and nothing fixed it
I didn't reinstall the game cause It's a pretty big download and I have a low speed internet right now, so I want to try and fix it without reinstalling.

Hey&nbsp;@OsterForever&nbsp; Thanks for the breakdown of information! 🙂

Quick question for you what kind of audio set do you have?&nbsp;

Worth reinstalling the audio drivers also there is a setting in windows that does the same thing as in game, if you go to sound and then communication turn that off and see if that helps.&nbsp;

Thanks for the reply&nbsp;@EA_Atic&nbsp;I already have it set at "Do nothing" because it was causing problems in some other gamesAlso, now I realise that I may have phrased my problem wrongWhen I said music, I mean only music, other sounds work just fine (car engine, voice lines and other sounds), that's why I doubt that it has anything to do with my setup, and it's a problem with the game itself. I did re-installed the audio drivers anyway and as I suspected - it didn't help.&nbsp;I'm using Superlux HD-330 headphones, plugged into MSI B450 PC Mate motherboard which uses Realtek&nbsp;ALC892 onboard soundcardSince I got this problem I've played a couple other games, including BFV which is using the same engine as NFS Heat and I didn't have any problems with sound.I'll be happy to provide more informations if needed 🙂&nbsp;
