intro with no audio??

[Cally Emeraldaz]

the recap of the first game has literally no audio, the only thing i can hear is just interaction noises

``luckily the sound was only cut off for me in the recap of the first game, aka the intro to the game when u launch it

but other than that it works fine for me within the game it self``

I can confirm there are some issues with the sound in the intro. I could hear the audio but it was degraded and crackled.

I did not experience this issue.

Kinda the same here.
Into scene was pretty much nothing but the music. I wouldn't have known aloy was talking had it not been for the subtitles.
In game is almost completely silent as well

I had literally NO sound, even though my speaker volume on my PC is at 100% & not muted.

Anyone else getting fps drops during cutscenes no matter what graphics settings you have it on? I have a RTX 3060, i7-12700k, 64GB RAM & yet even on the lowest setting, I get random fps drops only during cutscenes. The rest of the game is fine, even on the highest settings.

Me too. Obviously made sure I was on the right device and vol was up. Disabled other speakers, set quality to DVD and CD, disabled spatial audio, tried both headset (Corsair Virtuoso and regular audio speakers, same audio quality and no spatial audio). Also tried different audio "modes" because I read that using "TV" was a fix (it's not). So I've tried multiple audio devices and changed every possible OS and in-game setting I can. I guess they'll need to patch the game.

Have anyone found a real fix for this? Disabling other audio devices does not work for me. This is the only game I have audio issues with.

I just started the game up today on June 17 and its still here. No audio but button press clicks in the intro.

copying from a post i made on a similar thread:

in the audio tab of the settings interface, just above master volume, is an "audio mix" option. if it's on default, try changing it to tv or headphones.

something about how hfw interfaces with audio drives can cause it to try to send 3d audio to channels that don't actually exist, resulting in really wonky volume mixture across the channels that do exist.
