Sound issue

[est'_pozvonit'?]

In Legacy sound is fine but in Enhanced I can't even choose sound system; half of the sounds are missing, I can't hear dialogues. I use headphones 7.1 Surround sound system pls help

/i found that the Spatial Sound its causing this issue... i just deactivate the option and then open gta v, so far , the problem has gone, i have logitech pro x with 7.1 sound and its working fine...

A friend of mine had it turned of in general, it's still not working. He can't hear phone calls but hears the phone open up. Weapons sounds like shooting or reloading are very quiet, but he can't hear the weapon wheel. Car engines are very quiet but he hears explosions. What else could the issue be?

nvm i fixed it
You need to enable 3D sound system in windows managment
press win + i => system => sound => find output device => properties => in the option Spatial sound switch to Windows Sonic headphones

**UPDATE**
I close it all down restarted and checked setting again. I turned on ATMOS in windows and then manually confirmed the ATMOS is working in game and Windows is sending as ATMOS/PCM. I played some single player and it absolutly has separation over the normal 5.1. Its not verifiable with a logo like with bitstream or HDR, you get that badge. Now if sounds are missing thats a another story but I was able to verify atmos separation and all audio level were loud and crisp verified through all 9 (5.1.4) channels.

I would suggest running the newest Windows and Dolby app but they could make this easier.

This is poor support of Atmos and turning on Atmos in Windows does not solve the problem. I knew this was going to happen but NetFlix does this as well.

Some services or games will try to jam Atmos data into the DD+ stream. Its a limited Atmos bitrate wise but none the less works.

Games can choose to do DD+ with ATMOS or Bitstream in FULL ATMOS. This game does neither and bit of a bummer. I have 5.1.4 set up monitor what actually working with ATMOS well.

Turning on ATMOS in windows can just take the 5.1 and force it to ATMOS and does not mean the atmos data is actually being sent.

I can have windows on stereo and when sending in "ATMOS" the receiver will pick up the bitstream. If its using DD+ it will come over as "DD+/ATMOS". Clear as day when the track is being sent. Windows hides this by upmixing everything and you cant trust whats its doing.

Outside of this I have no clue what this game is actually doing or sending.

There are some environmental effects missing from especially car engine/exhaust sounds. Drive into any of the longer tunnels and that soft echo that used to be there is completely absent. You get the same engine/exhaust note as in open terrain. I sure hope this is not due to me not using Dolby Atmos. I have a Creative SoundblasterX G6.

They completely removed the option for Surround Sound in this release of the game. 1 step forward and 2 steps back. Nobody gets too far like that.

[Jorda229]

same for me, audio options are gone and all the sounds feel lower quality than on legacy

[GTO]

lol, better stereo upmix, than atmos.

I fixed mine, my spatial sound was off and i switched it on, windows sonic for headphones
