No sound in Mulitplayer, sound works in SP fine.....

[Derinahon]

Just had my first audio cut out whilst playing off-line The sound stuttered for a while before disappearing for about a minute, coincidently when enemy fighters were coming into view. After roughly a minute the sound stuttered back in and continued to work for the rest of the mission. Strange.

Both myself and a friend had frequent sounds disappearance playing multiplayer yesterday (the first we played again since the last patch), trying various maps and missions, including some dogfight missions that have no additional scripting (but AI spawning). I'm using a Creative Fatal1ty usb headset, he was using onboard audio. Hard drive defragged by OO, .net updated, headset drivers too, no OC, no conflicting process (got them down to minimum really) and it's still happening - quite frustrating, we decided to shelve CoD and go back to RoF and UP 3 RC for a while until it's sorted out...

I never had the sound bug (not that I will complain about unfair treatment...) but I am wondering.

I am flying Window mode 3072x1024 (my desktop is 3840x1280).

Does anybody flying window mode experience the sound bug?

Check your power management settings. Go to advanced settings and check that you have NO powersaving options ON.

I use Gamebooster which has an option to set Gaming PowerPlan that disables any powersaving.

I have heard that someone experienced a screensaver pop up while CoD was running. It might be the same with powersaving options switching on. And guess it would be hard for a PC to handle this sim if hardware is underpowered.

ps. Make sure you run 550W+ PSUs at least or greater depending on your videocard power consumption.

Try setting game sound to "ambisonic uncoded". Someone reported this solved the issue for Realtek onboard sound.

I'm getting screwed sound in SP too

Yeah, i had the sound issue carry over to single player once after leaving a multiplayer game where i encountered is. Very strange.

Double-check that you have both CoD directories excluded from Antivirus real-time monitoring shields (in internet and file monitoring settings). There are 2 exclusion lists one for manual/scheduled scanning and 2nd one for real-time monitoring/scanning. Make sure you exclude CoD from the real-time one.

The 2 CoD folders to be excluded are located in 1) Steam folder, 2) My documents folder.

Another solution reported at sukhoi.ru: install a clean Win7-64 to be used only with CoD. Do not install anything on it except for joystick and headtrack utilities, even antivirus. Just do not visit webpages or download anything from this OS, use the old OS for this instead.

Please share your results. We can help the devs to locate the problem more precisely.
