Help! No sound in SWOTOR

I installed SWTOR yesterday after a good few years of not playing, and resubscribed before the install finished, however, I’m having issues now after booting up the game - I had no problems installing, but after I started that game there was no sound. I just had a loud click and then nothing. A few moments later, a crash to desktop while on the character screen.
It’s really odd, because I have the sound when the play button illuminates, and for god measure I can get sound when I watch an intro scene from the character select menu, but nothing from in game. I can’t get past the point of logging a character in at all as the game freezes for a moment then reverts to desktop without any error message.

I have scoured the Internet and tried every suggestion from ctrl+s to checking sound levels, to disabling other sound devices but have not fixed it, so this is my last resort before I give up. My other games run fine. I have tried reinstalling, and did so on my SSD the second time, but still the same.
I’m running Windows 10 fully updated, GTX 1050Ti, AMD FX 6300 and using a Corsair void wireless headset (dongle is recognised as. a sound card) - I have even tried disabling my void, and tried using my sound blaster card as default, but having the same problem. A loud click but no sound - incidentally this click also happens if I go into sound setting and check or uncheck enable sound from the character select screen. I don’t know what else to do since sometimes some games use the wrong sound card as default, which is easily remedied by switching it to the void, but in swotor I don’t se an option to do this. To get around this I had tried disabling the unused sound blaster but nope. Any help would be appreciated
