Hi KillSwitch,

Thank you for reporting this. Do you only have audio issues in Age of Empires? Is the overall sounds volume low for you in-game or is it specifically music or sound that is low?

Could you please share more details such as you in-game audio settings and your audio settings in Windows when you go to Volume mixer?

Do you have any pending Windows updates or did you recently do a Windows update?

Thanks!

Turn up the volume on your computer, and then try increasing the volume on your speakers/monitor. If that doesn't work, check your audio drivers for updates.

Does this volume issue affect anything else? Like youtube videos, or other games or is it only AoE2?

Try plugging in some headphones and see if the problem persists.

Hey KillSwitch,

Sorry to hear the issue is still there. How do your audio settings under Volume Mixer look like? (Taskbar > right click on sound icon > open Volume Mixer)

You can also type Sound in your search bar > click sound settings > advanced sound options > check what volume level AoE2 has there.

Another thing to try would be to update your audio drivers.

Since when have you had this issue?

The in-game sounds are 16 bit. Change your sound output to 16 bit.
