No Sound At All

[Dicehunter]

Went to play ACM today and from the very get go at the SEGA splash screen there is no sound.
I've verified the cache and still nothing.
All drivers are up to date as well but this is the only game that has no sound for some odd reason.

To me,that might be because your computer or laptop is old

try launching the game in windowed mode...i forget how aside from pressing alt+enter. Doubt it will work but...

at this point you're probably going to need to reinstall the game

Tried that and sadly did not work, Tried deleting and re-installing but still has the same problem, It's the only game that I have that has this problem though :(

Tried all that sadly to no avail thank you for the reply though.

Ok so far I have tried on 3 different machines, 2 x running Windows 8.1 and another running Windows 7.
No sound at all.
I'm completely stumped.

I figured it out, I may have had an extremely blonde moment.

I was benchmarking my new graphics card a few days ago using Alien Isolation and if you go to "Launch Properties" you input "-benchmark" and it launches the benchmark instead of the game.

Well I accidentally put it into the launch options somehow of Aliens:Colonial Marines and as A:CM doesn't have a benchmark mode it muted the sound and somehow carried over my error to the other computers, Options like this must be account linked.

Anyway I cleared the "Launch Properties" field and now I have full sound :)

I had it once but by restarting the game the problem has disappeared.
