No in-game sound when I'm on Discord

Hi, I've recently tried streaming with friends on my PC via Discord KCD2. But found that though they could hear the game through Discord, when I was trying to play no sound would be available to me other than Discord sound. Does anyone have any suggestions?

hmmm, if I remember correctly, there's some setting in Discord where it lowers the volume of background apps when you are in a voice chat.

Ah, could also be this fella here:

If it's Windows 10, right-click your speaker icon - click sounds - then communications and then there's 4 options
Make sure it's not set to "Mute all other sounds"

I had a look, mine is set to "reduce the volume of other sounds by 80%" so probably not that. Thanks tho

Yea that's the default setting.


Let me ask you this though.
How does this happen? I imagine:

You are in Discord,
Start the Game,
They can hear it
you can hear them, but you can't hear the game anymore?

And when you stop hearing the game, they still can?



Is there some weirdo function where you listen to your own stream when using Discord and it redirects everything you hear to that? would make sense, otherwise you'd get a loop (if you wouldn't use headphones)
