Hmm, that sounds like something might be taking focus away from the game until you click on it to give it focus in Windows. Which VR headset are you using?

I'm using the Valve Index - video output to the headset seems ok, I can see the game startup splash-screens and clips and the game menus come up in the headset, just the audio isn't there until I left click with the mouse.

Very odd. This only happens if you're playing in VR? The same thing doesn't happen if you launch the game without the headset?

I know right? Very weird. Yes - only in VR and only this game. If I launch the game non-VR, then sound outputs immediately on startup to my main speakers as expected. I've noticed if Steam VR is already running when I launch the game - for example if I play another game, quit that and then launch SW Squadrons directly from the Steam VR environment, then the problem does not occur. audio is output to the VR headset as soon as the game starts launching - music plays for the Lucasarts splash screen and the startup video clips. I guess I could just try starting steam VR before starting the game.

Hmmm, I see. Were you able to test that out? If Steam VR is already running before you launch the game there aren't any audio issues?

Yes - confirmed, if Steam VR is already running then no audio issues.
