Feldgrun Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 Strange sound issues in CloD/DWT. It started when I played offline as my computer was being moved to a new location & internet hadn't been connected. Sometimes I'd have sound, but often not. When I was fortunate enough to get sound, sometimes the sound would cut out in the middle of a mission, when I paused the game and selected a different camera view. The issue has continued when the computer is now set up with internet in a new location. Still, sometimes I get sound, but usually not. I tried ensuring I had admin rights (run as admin), ensuring that the game was properly installed via Steam (verified game file integrity), & starting the game from the Steam icon, but still the issue remains. Same thing is happening with IL2 GB. Any idea what's going on?
LLv34_Flanker Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 S! I had issues with sounds on other games too one day and it boiled down to wrong selected output for game sounds. An update might have messed that up, but works now. As you have issues in both games I would go double checking you do not have conflicting sound devices, like a screen speaker instead of your headset etc.. Disable those not used. I doubt it is in the game.
Feldgrun Posted November 17, 2023 Author Posted November 17, 2023 Thanks. Any advice on how to check & deconflict sound devices?
LLv34_Flanker Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 (edited) S! I opened Sound Settings in Windows and disabled all those inputs/outputs I knew were not in use, like GPU/display audio interface etc. As I use USB headset(Razer) also disabled onboard soundcard from BIOS. When you have checked that, what remains are usually only a couple of options to test. Edited November 18, 2023 by LLv34_Flanker 1

Check to see what sound driver you are using for the game, and check the Windows mixer. 1
Bf109Ace Posted November 28, 2023 Posted November 28, 2023 Hi, I have a similar problem with the sound in CloD. The sound seems to cut out when selecting a different view. This has been a recent development and seems to happen when there are a lot ( say 50plus ) of aircraft in the sim. Nothing re the sound drivers has changed ( at least not by me ) Could this be an update issue? 1

IL2 1946 always works, so I've been playing it a lot lately.

Can you guys both take a look at the below thread and post your results? Thanks ? 1
Bf109Ace Posted December 5, 2023 Posted December 5, 2023 Hi Buzzsaw Some explanation of the loss of sound ( in my case only motor sound lost. Ambient noise and guns still present ) Over the years I have noticed when cycling through: External View- Cycle Friendly/ Enemy View, motor/engine sound would be absent from some of the aircraft in a squad. At this stage mostly bombers were affected and sometimes fighters. As of late the fighters are affected much more often and it seems to be triggered when checking an External Padlock- Friendly/ Enemy Aircraft or, External View- Cycle Friendly/ Enemy Aircraft Not sure if it ever happened with Inside View. BTW Controller Microsoft Sidewinder FF2 Unfortunately Bugtracker has not sent me an activation email. does it still work? I tied to attach the cppcrash folder but the file type .dmp is not accepted... email maybe? Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19045.3693] (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

Feldgrun Posted December 11, 2023 Author Posted December 11, 2023 I found a fix for a total lack of sound. Start game. If no sound, click "Windows" & "Tab" at the same time & select sound settings. Even if your correct audio input is selected, I have to click off of it and reselect it to get it to work. It seems the game is not recognizing my audio source from the outset.

Looks to me that you have a couple of different audio options for your PC.... Asus or the built in Windows audio. You may need to resolve which system you are using. 1
jollyjack Posted December 11, 2023 Posted December 11, 2023 Windows is always messing up which audio device is active. You can disable motherboard HD realtek chips usually in the MB BIOS if you don't need it, but others like a lot of Graphic cards with audio will automatically install when updating. IMO the only option is to DISABLE the ones you don't need in Device Manager, and leave just one active. 1
