winchesterdelta1 Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) Hello, I got an issue with my DCS headset Audio. Since i changed USB ports because i had to connect my new racing wheel i lost all audio trough my headset. Even when i connect it to the original USB port. When i unplug the headset the audio does come trough my regular speakers. DCS can see all my audio devices perfectly. Troubleshoot steps i done "Plantronics DA70 headset": *Restart PC > No solution *Change USB port. > No solution *Update game > No solution *Check Game audio config > On Defaulth *Changed game audio config directly pointing at Plantronics DA70 from the drop down menu > No solution *Plantronics as default device in windows > Check *Test with other games > Works perfectly *Run DCS repair > No solution *Test with SRS > Works perfectly *Disconnect racing wheel > No solution *Re-installed headset drivers in device manager > No solution *Copied and renamed Config folders in DCS root and DCS Saved games > No solution *Cleared content FXO folder > No solution *Cleared content MetaShaders 2 > No solution Only major changes to the system where: - Installed Racing wheel. - Moved headset to another USB port. - Updated DCS. - Updated SRS.

ED Team c0ff Posted October 19, 2020 ED Team Posted October 19, 2020 Ok here it is. Thanks. 2020-10-19 04:11:47.796 INFO SOUND: Opening default audio device. 2020-10-19 04:11:47.798 INFO SOUND: Driver reports 1 channels with mask 0x4 2020-10-19 04:11:47.798 ERROR SOUND: Driver reported an invalid output configuration!

Current code assumes a buggy driver here and tries to force stereo config. I guess the device is actually mono and thus the stereo attempt fails. Let's check the following: add the line to your Config/autoexec.cfg file (create an empty one if there's none): sound.channel_mask = 4 This will force DCS to use mono output. If this helps, I will adjust the code to accept mono devices. Dmitry S. Baikov @ Eagle Dynamics LockOn FC2 Soundtrack Remastered out NOW everywhere - https://band.link/LockOnFC2.
