Audio cutting out?
Does anyone else have this issue? I never had this when I played a few months ago but now the game audio randomly cuts out for me and doesn't come back until I go to the main menu.

Someone else had a similar issue after .61 hit, they where using a USB headset, I think a driver update fixed it!

Driver update for the headset? I'm using an Afterglow headset and it says my drivers are up to date?

They do have a firmware update for this (if you do not already have it)
https://pdp.com/en/afterglow-wireless-headsets-firmware-update

I would be very cautious of course with any firmware update!! reading some reviews these headsets seem to suffer a lot with "audio cut out" Might be worth contacting them direct??? only effects certain programs usually with high CPU usuage (such as dayz)

Good luck but my advice maybe to look for another better suited gaming headset which is wireless (two of our guys use the logitech one - works well)

Well this has never happened before with any game on any platform I've used it on, and I've had this for at least 3 years since I played on 360. I also play CPU demanding games like miscreated and this has not happened there. I'll check it out but I've never had to manually update this headset in 3 years so I don't have high hopes.

Not just me then...sorry but I haven't figured out how to solve this yet either. Let me know if you fix it, though.

Try changing the audio properties to fm quality. Worked for me.

I downloaded the new update, and the audio does not work, it has no signal of the audio of the game. What do I have to do?
