No audio after 1.3 update

After updating to 1.3 game no longer outputs audio, getting kinda fed up with bugs already

try verify installation folder for wrc
and reset ingame audio to default

yip, did that, then tried re - download + install but deathly silence ensues.

Runing with a SoundBlaster AE5 Plus card if anyone has the same and it works/doesnt would be interested to know

do you have sound outside of wrc?

hi Pawnstar, thanks for taking an interest.

Yes, sound works as expected outside WRC both system sound and in Iracing etc. WRC audio worked fine from game launch until today when I updated to 1.3, nothing else has changed apart from the update.

u might want to look into this
it might be the config file for everything

yeah I tried that too, no joy.

I'll try another fresh install. Its a shame, putting the little "new game issues" aside I was enjoying playing however no sound is a step too far.

yea my mistake that just totally wiped out graphical settings
but all other settings remained

I solved the issue.
I used hapticonnect to run my buttkicker before recently changing to simhub. I hadnt uninstalloed the hapticonnect software so I thought there may be some conflict going on and yes, after uninstalling the hapticonnect software I now have audio on WRC.
I still think it was something in the 1.3 update which caused this, as everything else on the PC used to run my simrig worked as it had been.
