(FIXED) Dialogue sound disappeared when turning away.
As title said, modded game btw starting new. Then I started to notice something. Whenever someone speaks or anything, the sounds would completely goes quiet if you facing away.

Only facing them the sound would reappeared and just goes on normally.. Any fixes? It seems I'm the only one here.

Ehh double posting here, still the same. I guess Bethesda somehow messed up audio? I never got these kind of issues before but I guess I can bare to live with it. Until fixes arrived.

OK, so we need to look further. I always say the User really has the best idea what's happening as we aren't there to look for ourselves. Update any audio drivers.

You're probably using onboard sound. Sometimes even updating your Bios can help if you are using motherboard sound.
Also maybe try setting your system to headphones if you can and see what happens?

Yes it's work, but that's how it is with pcs.

Sounds like your sound set-up is wrong. You need to change your sound settings.

Can you help me with that? Never had these kind of issues before.

this game requires Stereo only. So if your system is configured to some other output than just plain old stereo, you should change it.

Also just to be sure, your game should be running 60 fps or 120 if it's native to the monitor. Other higher fps may cause issues though not this specifically.

Setted my Realtek to Stereo, 16 bits 48khz. Plus capped FPS to 72 so i really don't know what went wrong here sadly.

Restart and you should be ok.

Don't worry. Windows sometimes messes around with sound settings especially if updating. Happens to everyone.

Your computer has several methods for sound. One is often through your monitor's HDMI connection from your video card (depending on your brand of monitor and your video card, this will plug in to the monitor). The other may usually come in the form of the plain old 'without a video or sound card' out put, which is controlled by the motherboard, and not your video card.
