Output HDMI Sound problem

[nriofriop]

Suddenly i started having problems with the sound in the game when conecting my PC to my TV via HDMI. It was all working fine and suddenly (maybe a beta update?) I already tried all the beta options available and nothing works. Its not a problem with the sound card, I can still play other videogames with no problems and also play music on the TV for example. The closest I got from solving the issue was when I had minimized the game window, in that moment I had sound on the Tv, but when I opened the window the Sound went out again. Any idea? I really prefer playing this on a big screen TV and obvously the sound in this game is one of the best things!

Thanks in advance!

I'm getting this too, I really hope someone finds a fix or a workaround for this. Really frustrating issue.

same issue...did you guys find a solution?

It seems like the developers are unaware of this problem, but it could also be that (due to the nature of game maker) the scope of the problem might be too large-scale to easily fix. I know little about coding in game maker, though, so that's just speculation. Here's hoping someone fixes it eventually, though!

I have the same problem :(
Also, Super Time Force Ultra doesn't have a sound via HDMI too.

I don't remember how I fixed it, only that I did. You may have to google the problem to figure it out rather than look via the game profile/hub.

good to know it's fixable! i never ended up finding a fix, but good info that at least it's possible.

Hey all,

I'm currently working on this. Any extra info you can provide would be very helpful.

If possible please post the text from Steam->Help->System Information.

The game uses the "Default Device" that is set in your "Sound Control Panel"'s Playback tab (windows 10). Are you seeing "HDMI Sound" or something being set to the default output device? Do you hear the computer's system sounds coming out of the TV PRIOR to launching the game?

We updated the game to the latest Gamemaker Runtime which seem like it doesn't play sound out of the device that is expected here. It seems possible that Windows is changing the audio device after the game is launched.

i haven't booted up the game in a while, but i'll try find time to test this and get back to you within the next few days if i can. regardless, glad to know a dev is working on bug fixes for one of the best games of all time! cheers for doing so :)
