Sound cuts out

I was playing in multiplayer and the sound cut out. I thought it was my sound card but i looked in event viewer and nothing had crashed

Had the same thing recently thought it was my amp/dac that went out. Scared the crap out of me. Restarted the game and it was fine again.

same thing happened to me last week. I figured some hacker was hating on me.

Yeah dude, I was just playing and there was an explosion and the sound was just gone. Some guy was still talking in the squad voip though.

It happened to me 2 times in heavy action.I restarted the game and the sound was ok.I don’t play on onboard sound card so i thought my Creative is dead but no.I’ve tried to repair the game after this problem but didn’t help,so after 2 weeks i think the same issue on Galicia.God knows what is happening with this game.

Ya ive have strange sound issues after patch.In some new maps sound are pulsating wave like.also sound seems flat, non directional sometimes , i have to restart to get it to work.Have not changed anything on my end. once again new patch new issues.

it’s a shame this happens! happened to me too and not only once. and all you can do is quiting the game and start it again! As i know almost the same thing happened also in BF4(it didn’t happen to me ever)

This started happening to me since the last patch.

Sound often cuts out in the main menu just after the game is loaded. Sometimes this is also accompanied by a client crash. On other occasions, the client has simply refused to start and I’ve had to repair the game to even get the main menu to load.

hmm this only happened to me once. not sure if it helps. but maybe want to disable audio devices you dont’ use. I disabled hdmi audio from device manager. then disable w/e is listed in playback and recording I don’t use. on my board it was actually trial and error to figure out which one was for the monitor.

if you don’t see anything that says hdmi. under system devices I had two “high definition audio controllers” one was for onboard one was for hdmi.

I seem to have the same issues. This is since the last patch. The sound in the menu screen and ingame randomly around 2-10 secs cuts out. Tried everything already like reinstalling drivers and disconnect other unrelated USB devices, anything that could remotely be a cause. it does not seem to happen in any other game for me or movie, website etc.

But you didn’t try what I suggested, so you haven’t tried everything.

uninstall nvidia audio drivers. disable all audio drivers in playback and recording you dont’ use. Go into device manager and under system devices disable the audio devices for hdmi audio. put default audio to lowest quality.

update your audio drivers and vid drivers. I haven’t had it happen again since doing these things.

happend to me today thought my usb went out the door ! not only do we get high cpu spikes and bad frame times we get sound totaly cutting out 2 years later lol

Already did all that… It does not seem to be a problem in the machine. Was just wondering if i’m the only one. I’m way ahead of all this stuff.

are you sure man? it fixed my issue. did you actually disable the monitors or hdmi audio device in device manager?

basically no devices show up for me now in playback devices except my onboard sound card. and I disable the digital output since I don’t use it. and I disable line in and stereo mix under recording.

I was getting annoyed that after a restart or reboot the monitor’s audio device would show back up in the list. Sometimes I would see a dozen of them in there. Disabling it directly from device manager fixed the issue for that as well.

Its only happened to me once in a whole year and never again. So it has to depend on system.

are you sure you actually disabled hdmi or your monitor speakers from device manager? that fixed my issue.

Basically i don’t see anything even listed anymore in playback or recording devices except my onboard sound card. I disable digital output since I don’t use it. and line in and stereo mix in recording.

i was getting annoyed at the monitors audio device constantly popping up in the list even after being disabled. Its a known windows 10 bug. Sometimes I would see a dozen devices listed there. Disabling it directly from device manager fixed the issue. But I had to guess with trial and error which high definition audio listing under system devices belonged to the monitor since it doesn’t specify.

And I thought it was a fluke yesterday, since the sound just cut out in the middle of a match.
Tried to alt-tab and switch to other sound output but that didn’t help, had to completely restart the game.

Same thing happened to me today.

Sound suddenly went “bomf” and then no more sound.

I remember having this issue sometimes in the first couple months since release, but not since then.

Same for me and it keeps happening every 2-4 games i ear a popping sound, after that no more sound and i have to restart the game. Also after the sound went off if i alt-tab it makes the popping every time.

I tried reinstal sound driver, video card driver, the game and still happens i don’t know what to do…

Set to 16bit 44100khz in audio driver properties.
