64-bit Sound issue and fps drop.

[The_Fuzzy_Sasquatch]

When I play arma on 64 bit if i am in first person in a vehicle or inside a building in 1st person, i get a sound glitch and also seems to affect my FPS. it goes almost to zero wondering if anyone has been able to find a fix for this situation.

I have attached link to a video of what arma is doing when I run the game on 64-bit.

My set up:
procssor: AMD FX- 8320 eight core procssor
RAM: 16Gb
System Type: 64-bit Operating system, x64-based processor (windows 10 home)
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660.
Sound: stock Realtek HD audio (came with computer)
Headset: Corsair VOID RGB USB dolby 7.1 gaming headset.

it appears to be an issue with AMD FX CPU's and 7.1 Virtual Surround on USB. any thing you can add or put to the maniphest could help.

This is exactly the same issue that I am having. Please fix! :D

same here...

I don't know if you fixed your problem, but I had the exact same issue. I looked through a crap ton of threads, and I figured out what worked for me. I had to turn my game to x32 bit. I haven't messed around with my sound settings too much, but the basic premise of this glitch is when you have a 7.1 surround sound headset, it will (FOR SOME REASON) conflict with the x64 bit, creating the sound problems you encounter. I hope this method works for you and have a nice day ;)

Why have the devs not made any attempt to fix a bug such as this.

Sound is and has been totally broken since 64bit came out and nothing at all has been done about it. Even in stereo on headsets the sound stutters, pops in and out, crackles. Sound not working in a game is a joke. what next no colours?

I've been having this issue for a long time as well. I know that getting a new CPU would fix it, but that's out of the question for me right now.

Because Op's problem is a known AMD problem!
Your problem is different and sounds like a classic sound driver problem your end!

Apart from the issue of sound not working in 64bit on both amd and intel is a known bug. The only difference is they havnt done anything about it.

The sound is not 100% working correctly in 32bit either. no matter the drivers or system. There has always been little pops and snaps and sound poping in especially in the environmental sound effects. I can reproduce it on many systems all with totally different sound hardware.

While that is true, I'm talking about the bug that bugs players fps! As i said a different problem and a known bug even dating back to Arma 2! Keep up fella!

I have had this issue for a long time with a Corsair VOID USB headset on Windows 10. It looks like I figured out the issue and found the solution.

The problem is actually with the Corsair driver and how it handles the windows 7.1 environment.
I don't know if the issue is the same with other headsets, but this was my solution:

1. Enter Device Manager in search bar >Open Device Manager> Sound, video, game controllers>Corsair VOID Headset> Right-click and select "Update Driver"

2. Choose "Browse my computer" > "Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer"

3. You will see the Corsair official driver in the list, also the Windows generic driver.
Choose the windows driver and it will be installed.

4. You will need to restart your computer, and then watch for a pop up prompt
saying "Windows detected that audio enhancements for Corsair VOID Headset were causing problems and were disabled. Do you want to re-enable?"

Select NO.

5. Now open the Sounds app by right clicking the speaker icon in the task bar and selecting "Sounds" > Playback tab

6. Right click "Corsair Headset" > Properties > Spatial Sound

7. Select from drop-down list "Windows Sonic for Headphones"
Ensure that "turn on 7.1 virtual surround" box is checked off (should be automatically)

CONGRATS, now you can experience Arma 3 (and many other games) in working 7.1 surround sound, without any of these problems that the official driver seems to create.

I don't know, but I think this same method will work for other USB headsets as it seems to be a driver compatibility issue.

I just want you to know that if you ever need a blowie or a neckrub I am there for you since you have been there for me in giving me the solution.

I tried Voicemeter, I tried with and without newer and older logitech drivers for my ♥♥♥♥♥♥ G930.

And here you are with a "simple fix" that let me keep my functionality and logitech software installed. I love you bro <3

Kindest regards your possible gay lover?
