Unable to turn on/hear the vehicle radio

Just a minor inconvenience, but I have the in game radio turned on, and all the corresponding audios turned to the max, however when I'm driving and attempt to turn on/switch the radio via the wheel I hear nothing. I can however, hear if someone else is driving and they turn the radio on. (Xbox series X)

    I think the problem is with the inputs. When you select the radio channel and let go of the stick, wheel selection defaults to below, and that option is empty, so nothing happens. I can manage to turn on the radio by holding the stick forward until I let go of the wheel button, but that causes the highlight to go too quickly to the top of the list, and I am usually only able to play local radio -because it is placed on the top of the list- unless you are very quick and be able to let go the wheel as soon as the channel you wish is highlighted.

    Randomly and the only time it seems to have worked is a few days ago. I heard the radio by the tennis courts by Conquest E playing the BF theme. This is on the New York map where 1 team spawns near the fire station.

    I have the exact same problem on the Xbox Series X. Today it suddenly worked but only in a VECTOR. Tried it afterwards in a tank and it didn't work.

    Same here on my Ps5 pro i refuse to drive a tank without some tunes;)

  • Not working on Series X here either. All relevant audio settings are on and up. Can't say I've ever heard the radio from a vehicle at all, even other players. 

  • Same issue on PC. Everything is turned on and at 100% but I don't get the radio music. I forgot it even existed but will see clips with it and I feel like I am missing out on some great moments.

  • I can't hear the radio anywhere nor do I have the ability to turn anything on.  The commarose doesn't even show it as an option.  All settings are set to allow radio, yet nada.  Even deleted and reinstalled the game.

    Xbox series x

     

    Edit:  I just realized the commarose is switched while driving from the LB/L1 to the up button..... problem solved for me

    Also still have this issue in PS5! It's a shame, always felt great getting your squad pumped up when they hop in your jeep and you start blasting some classical music

  • It's bugged ever since they pay walled the Local Radio station. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
