Audio dissapears in vr after 5-10 minutes!

[Dennish]

I cant figure out, if the issue came with yesterdays OB update, or its caused by nvidia driver. I´ve tried a script which sould stop the drivers from power saving hdmi audio, but no luck.

I have tried messing around with all kids of settings

Different servers/modules

It only seems to happen in dcs.

Let me know if you need anything else.

The sound dissapeared when i switched to the spitfire. If you look at the log, you can see there is an error at sound: bufferEvent has timed out. Maybe thats the problem.

Okay guys, i think i solved the problem. Aparrently i plugged the hmd´s usb, in 2.0 port. Plugged it in 3.0, and so far no issues.

Thanks for your feedback.

Well, dont wanna ruin your weekend. It happend again today. Most often when i spawn in f16. Yesterday, i played all evening in f18, and earlier today. When i switched to viper, sound dissapeared. I remember i moved my m2 disk from old to new pc. Maybe thats the issue. Anyway, im running the repair service.

Happens to me too. Volume cuts by about 50%. Only while running DCS, not in anything else. As soon as I quit the 'game' and go back to the UI volume returns to normal. Audio devices are left to default and all volume settings are at 100%.

Everything is affected, game sounds, SRS, discord but like I said, only with DCS running and in the game flying. It actually went away for sometime but recently returned, cannot say if it is patch related though. Very frustrating to say the last.
