    I disabled audio enhancements and my audio started working correctly.

    The game was open already when i did this.

Hi @spartakuspsp,

That's an odd one for sure, have you tried updating your Audio drivers yet? Might be worth giving the Repair option a try as well by right clicking the game inside Origin and selecting Repair.

My Audio drivers are already up to date, tried the Repair option and it didn't work.

After more fiddling with it I found out that:

  • The audio works normally if I connect a DS4 controller through a cable. I can even listen to the audio not-through the controller if I change audio output to my speakers/extra headphones.
  • Despite all of this, after quitting the game, unplugging the controller or disconnecting it through "bluetooth and other devices" and starting the game, the problem still occurs.
  • Disconnecting the controller while in-game also causes the sound to become broken again, reconnecting it doesn't help: sound comes back only after restart.
