I'm having an issue where there is sometimes no sound whatsoever when playing BF3 PC. I have done all of the troubleshooting I can think of and still cannot figure it out. It doesn't always occur and I would say it happens in more than half the games/servers that I join...meaning maybe 1 or 2 games I join out of 5 actually has sound. Here is what I have determined thus far:
-It is NOT specific to one server as I've played the same server and have both experienced sound and no sound on it and I have tried several different servers
-It is NOT a volume mixer issue because as I said, I occasionally do get sound without adjusting anything
-It is NOT a speaker/headphone issue as I have tried plugging in different audio peripherals and when there is no sound none of the peripherals produce sound for bf3.
-It is NOT an origin issue because other games work just fine with sound
-It is NOT a browser issue because I have tried adjusting default browsers for battlelog and it doesn't make a difference
-Changing the game to windowed mode doesn't make a difference
Any ideas? I'm kinda at a loss here and the only other thing I can mention is that sound worked fine on my older computer, but not on the one I'm trying to play on which I recently built. I don't think that is the issue, but I have no other ideas.
