No sound in tf2. Please help

[Loot]

Yesterday my Team Fortress 2 sound stopped working altogether. Sound works with or without headphones with other steam games and from any other source. I have tried going settings, audio, volume, but it doesn't help. I tried using tf2 with another steam account on this computer and the sound still wouldn't work. I've even tried adjusting the mixer, any help would be great

Have you tried adjusting the audio setting on your computer?

Usually restarting my game does the trick.

I've done all of that before

snd_pitchquality 1
windows_speaker_config 7 //whatever you have

In console inside the game?
or Startup command?

Im not sure, just leave it like that and enable surround sound in ♥♥♥♥♥♥ razer synapse. Otherwise your TF2 will sound like its being played trough a sock. And that aint fun

Paste that into your autoexec.

If you dont then just do

+snd_spatialize_roundrobin 0
in your startup commands. I dont recommend it, just put a + infront of all the commands
and make sure to replace x with a value you are comfortable with.
Im not an expert on this field, Im just posting to try to atleast help you.

I'am really noob is that correct?

snd_spatialize_roundrobin 0
snd_surround_speakers 7.1
snd_disable_mixer_duck 0
snd_pitchquality 1
windows_speaker_config 10
snd_mixahead .07
soundinfo
volume .03

[LEON HEEEEEELP!@!!!111]

dont put 7.1

It just no. Dont just leave it like that and paste it in your autoexec. Its fine already, make sure to enable surround sound, otherwise your tf2 will sound like its being played trough a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sock.
And speaker config at default, Im not sure what that will do to your sound.

Sorry if I'm necroing but I found that if you have no sound its the sound.cache which you can find in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\sound.
If your game isn't modded then try deleting this and validating the game files. If your game is modded then look through your mods and see if any of them have a sound.cache file in them and if multiple then just go through deleting the mods one by one until the sound works again.

This is also happening to me. Ive yet to try that coding solution, but everything else for me doesnt work.. my game is muted, tampering with speaker settings in-game doesn't seem to help, yet portal 2, left for dead 2, and other valve and steam games work with their audio perfectly intact. A weird thing to note though, is that the game plays sound only upon restart when i have headphones plugged in, yet it returns silent upon unplugging them.. ive uninstalled and reinstalled, ive restarted my laptop, and verified and deleted the sound cache, but to no avail... help is greatly appreciated; i dont know how to fix this, and i dont want to play the game with headphones on 24/7
