[FS22] Crackling noise followed by no sound.

Post by Adde »

Hello.

It seems that after the last update (1.4) I am having audio issues. Here's a video showing the issue I'm having: https://youtu.be/njQ79EeKBtk

What I've tried so far to resolve the issue is:
  • Restart game and computer
  • Tried with and without mods
  • Tried in singleplayer and multiplayer
  • Tried on different maps
  • Verify files through Steam
  • Reinstall game and remove folder from documents
  • Tried different audio outputs
  • Changed default audio format
  • Reinstalled audio driver
  • Installed older version of audio driver
  • Verify Windows files using "SFC /scannow"
  • Made sure Windows is updated
I might have forgotten to add something to the list, but that should be most of it.

I've Google'd around a lot and found one post describing a similar issue: viewtopic.php?f=964&t=183922
But that issue is still not quite what I'm experiencing.


My PC specs are:
CPU: i7 8700K @ 4.8 Ghz
GPU: GTX 1070
RAM: 16GB Corsair @ 3000 MT/s
Mobo: ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-H GAMING
SSD: Samsung 970 EVO 1TB

Hello,

Same here, I have the exact same issue since I have installed the 1.4 version.

PS. Thanks a lot @Adde for the youtube video, it describes perfectly the problem.

My friend has the same happening, And for me the games mutes near buildings.
Only thing you can do for now is go a patch back if that is possible until Giants gets a fix.

Giants have posted this on their Twitter: https://twitter.com/AskGiants/status/15 ... 8317212672

No idea if that is going to fix the audio issue, but one can hope.

I had this issue a few time before patch 1.4, reloading the game always fixed it for me.
I always assumed it was caused by the reverb sound effect in buildings.
Now I don't have this issue currently, but since patch 1.4 the sound reverberates everywhere, I didn't mind to have it inside buildings, but currently driving around on the farm sounds horrible and passing by light posts, buildings or walls even more so.

If it weren't for the added vehicles and equipment in 1.4, I would have gone back to 1.3. :hmm:

As expected, the 1.4.1.0 patch seems to not have fixed my audio issue. I'll be going back to 1.3.1.0 for the time being, where the audio is still working.

Hey all!

I've been having this same issue, but I've fortunately found a workaround (for me; not sure if it'll work for everyone).

I noticed this issue (again, for me) was ONLY happening when I was using desktop speakers with the 8mm plug. If I swapped the sound to my USB headset the issue did not manifest.

Further, after some messing around, I was able to get my 8mm speakers to work by going into the sound device properties and enabling Windows Sonic Surround.

I'm running Windows 10 and have the RealTek audio interface on my motherboard.

For those that aren't as familiar with the sound device settings: (again, this worked for me and my issues; no idea if this will fix it for others)

1. Start
2. Settings
3. System
4. Sound
5. Sound Control Panel
6. Select the speakers you're using
7. Click Properties
8. Click "Spatial Sound"
9. Select "Windows Sonic for Headphones".
10. Click ok.

Can confirm that the workaround seems to work for me, too. But this mustn't be more then what it is: a workaround. So, fix that problem, Giants, please.

Regards,
Ralph

Hello!

Same here since version 1.4.0.0, the last version 1.4.1.0 doesn't fix the problem.

I tried the workaround proposed and worked for me also:

if i turn my sound down to 44100 mhz 16 bits i have full sound. but if i set it back up to 192000 mhz, the sound has problems.
Currently there is probably a problem with sound cards that can have better quality.

maybe that will help someone

I havent had this issue before the latest patch. I now have it since the last patch was applied. Sound Crackling in and out, once you tab to a vehicle its gone for good till you restart the game.
I thought it might have been mod related and/or map related, tried several Moded and Vanilla maps without any other mods active, however the issue stayed persistent.

I've found that reverting the 1.4 update to the 1.3.1 patch has resolved no audio for me. Here is a video of how to do this. Hope this helps someone.
