Sound Stops Working Entirely

[hammypants]

No real pattern to when it happens. Happens more frequently since EW released. I've been idling in my house or in the middle of a dungeon. I've gone days without it happening and it's happened twice in a day.

I have one audio device, it is never unplugged, it never resets, the drivers never crash, etc. The game audio will die while everything else will be chugging along fine.

It's happened on two entirely different machines with two entirely different audio setups.

The only fix that works is restarting the game entirely. Making a new audio device up and swapping the app to it doesn't work. Ditto for changing the default. Unplugging and removing the device entirely doesn't work. Changing screen resolutions doesn't work. Any permutation of playing with muting any of the options, changing bitrates, rubbing moon rocks on the computer, etc, all do not work.

Does anyone have any thorough explanation and/or work around for this? With the current queue situation this is quite untenable to be occurring during the prime hours.

Greetings fellow Eorzean,

We would like to further assist with this issue. Please provide a system report from the game by going to the 'Config' option on the Final Fantasy XIV launcher and to the right of 'System Information' click on 'Display.' Copy and paste the details of the selection to this post when replying back.

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

After some time experiencing the loss more often and cataloging when it occurs, it occurs most often during MSQ roulette.

Here is a redacted system report, as it lists too much personally identifying information.

Just happened in an Alexander - The Cuff of the Father normal raid roulette as I was playing samurai. Sounded like all audio faded out over 1-1.5s at once. Never came back.

[Byrd910]

I also have this issue, and have found no fix. Same symptoms - audio completely gone in-game. Can go multiple days without occurrence, or can happen multiple times in the same day. Changing default audio device, unplugging/plugging back in device do not work - only 'fix' is restarting the game. Happens most frequently in MSQ roulette for me as well, but has also occurred in other roulettes (occurred this evening in level 50/60/70 roulette).

[Byrd910]

I am not trying to hijack this thread, but because there are so few experiencing the total loss of sound issue, I figured I would post my specs as well to try and help out:

[Fyxation]

I've had this happen a couple of times since EW came out. Once, immediately after loading into the game (after queue). Another time while doing some alliance roulette--it just suddenly disappeared. Both times it returned after backing out to the title screen and logging back in. I attributed it to the distortion/stutter issue as I'm affected by that, too. Something isn't loading properly or in the proper order. Hopefully, the fix is coming soon.

[Puss_Kat]

This is a result of the audio engine changes and will likely be resolved by the same fix that is being readied for 5.08, though updating very outdated audio drivers can help as the cause is baasically that the hardware supports only 32 voice channels (compared to sound cards and mixing units having 128 - 256 voices). with certain old drivers bundling older APO modules the windows audio device graph resets and audio doesn't return when too many voices are processed at once.

[Eriks]

Same thing happened to me at Cuff of the Father, in game sound completely cut off in an instant, had to restart the game to get sound back, never had any audio issues before.

Such behavior has always been possible in this game, its rare and you might not see it occur again for 3 years.
