Hi all. I logged in to play today and battle sound work fine and are at normal levels, however,
  • Other players voices in voip
  • Other players hearing my voice in voip
  • Bitchin Betty's voice and
  • The company commanders voice
are all really soft.


The only difference I can think of between when it was working and when the other sounds were dimmed is that my son installed Discord for another game.

I have:
  • fiddled with sound settings (increasing DB levels in voip),
  • uninstalled Discord
  • reset the game settings to the default,
  • rebooted the game,
  • rebooted my system,
all to no effect.

Has anyone else had this problem? Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Got the solution on Reddit. Posting here for posterity...

I've had similar audio issues, and i can offer a couple of potential fixes. First thing to try is disabling application exclusivity on your sound device:
  • Right-Click your sound icon on the Windows Taskbar
  • Click on Sounds
  • In the new Sound window, click on the Playback tab
  • Right-Click your preferred sound output device and choose Properties
  • In the new Properties window, click the Advanced tab
  • Under the heading of Exclusive Mode, remove the checkmark beside Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device
  • Test
