No Sound AT ALL. How do i fix this?

[ĄĊĘƆƆǷŴŅŽ]

So i just updated My headset ( Arctis Nova Pro Wireless Headset ) and i wanted to play some Fallout76. I load in and imidiately i'm confused. No lobby music? I then go on to press play, load in a world, and i still hear nothing. I searched on youtube but nope, no answers. I tried changing my settings but nothing happens. I can hear my spotify, youtube, and other steam games. But this? man... If anyone got tips or an idea of what kinda problem this is, please do tell me.

Check settings in and out of game. Replug the headset; if you have an additional port try that. Silly, I know, but headsets sometimes make the game not work entirely. Also update... Nvidia :) and verify your files.

Covers your layman's stuff.

I just deleted the game and re-downloaded it. Didn't work, i'll try this out but i'm not sure how to do it, would you mind calling me on Discord and showing me how? fair if not, but i'm desperate, i'm a loot goblin, and a fallout76 addict, and i just cant live without the sounds xD

Not a discord user but someone more technically fluent might be willing to assist. Apologies I'm no better help; best of luck.

76 uses the default windows sound device. It’s possible that when you updated your headset the default got messed up. Go into your windows sound settings and put the headset as the default device.

FYI for new players: you MUST have your bluthooth paired with your PC before to launch the game.

FO76 binds to the active audio device when launched, it will not follow the device as set in OS if it changes, you will need to exit & relaunch the game.

How about posting what you did in case someone else has a similar issue?
