Easy Anti Cheat Mute my game

OMG I am having the same issue. I was going crazy trying to figure it out.  All my other games works. Both EA and Steam versions are crashing with audio problems.

After some research, it appears that the sound crash issue a few seconds after entering the game lobby stems from the latest EAC update. This crash, which requires a reboot to restore sound and therefore prevents the game from playing, affects the following sound card lines:

• Creative Labs 

Sound Blaster X-Fi (all cards)       Sound Blaster Audigy (all cards)

• Asus

Xonar (SE, AE, STX, ROG Phoebus, etc.)

I have found out it is due to Easy Anti Cheat causes the problem with people with asus xonar cards, creative fatality cards many others all posted on forums everywhere hopefully EA fixes it. https://www.reddit.com/r/FortNiteBR/comments/1k0qkz2/soundcard_users_are_crashing_at_startup_all_of_us/
