does your sound in windows work (can you play and hear mp3's/youtube vids or the likes)
does voip work?
did mumble work?

what sound device are you using?
1. make sure it is selected as "default device" for "playback"
2. make sure its not muted (if using a laptop try hitting the hot-key [usually Fn + F10])
3. make sure its plugged in correctly (just check it, really!)
4. when using a headset make sure the mute switch on the cable is not active

'TEF[NL wrote:;1278649']1. make sure it is selected as "default device" for "playback" What is this? where can i find it?
2. make sure its not muted (if using a laptop try hitting the hot-key [usually Fn + F10]) Where can i check this?
2. can be ignored since you reported that you are able to hear sounds in general

1.
a) right click on the speaker icon next to your system clock (default: lower right corner of screen)
b) in the context menu click "Playback devices"
c) in the next window you should see some devices there
- if you have multiple sound cards (i.e. onboard + xfi) you will see both in there
- if you only have one sound card you should still at least see a "Speakers" device
d) select "Speakers" (or the sound card you are using)
e) if the button "Set Default" is not greyed out click it (make it both "default device")

while you are at it (based on your answers I suspect another possible problem):
f) click the properties buttion (while still having the "Speakers"/your card selected)
g) switch to the "Advanced" tab
h) untick "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device"
i) close the dialogs clicking "OK"

please report back if it works or not

Nope, still not working :(

FUCK FUCK FUCK

i really hate it man!

man, i only can hear people talking on mumble, and they can hear me too so.

And in-game if i start PR you see bss or something you need to hear a sound but i dont hear that, and if im in-game in a squad and i talk they can hear me, But if they talk i cant hear them!

And i dont hear any game sounds. This is so fucked up man!

Now i only can play with mumble,
Shit happens

Man if someone can help me, oo i love him cuz he makes me happy again and let me play PR full up. :(

So i still hope that someone can help me,
Best Regards,
TEF

Check your Mumble settings to see if the values were changed.

If you're using Win7, make sure BF2s volume is not muted in your sound mixer.

Hey, see if this guide helps you: Prevent PR Mumble from turning down the volume on other applications
If that doesn't work, or you need any help, add me on xfire. It's "hermansperman".

How do solve this problem in steps:

1) Go to you're sound icon left from you're clock.

2) Click 1 time with you're left mouse button and click on Mixer

3) After that you see a kind of control panel where you can change you're sound for Different softwares/games that you have.

4) Look for Battlefield and look if its not muted, or the sound is on very low.

5 A) If its muted click under the sound bar 1 time on the Sound Icon.

5 B) Or if its not muted do the sound bar higher like 50 percent (%) << This was my problem :)


P.S. Sorry for my bad english, but i think you can understand it ;) .

Best Regards,
TEF

I think that if you do it that way, it will turn BF2's volume down every time you start up Mumble. To prevent that, you have to do what it says here: Prevent PR Mumble from turning down the volume on other applications
