I can't hear people in Mumble

Post by W00MER »

Upgraded to PR 1.2 and now players can hear me in mumble but I cannot hear them. The text alerts that show when players are using mumble no longer show up as well. I've checked my mumble setting overlay and I have not muted myself or anything like that. I am running Windows 8 and prior to updating my mumble was fine. Anybody have any ideas?

Yeah i have that you as well problem before. What you can do is when your in-game alt-tab out and on the taskbar you should see a Project Reality icon click it then go to configure - audio wizard and follow the steps that it shows after that. Hopefully that should work out the problem. Also side note if you look at the forums it has a support section for PR:BF2 just on under there and if have any more problems post in that area you should find you some help.

Yep, just change the audio output on your PR Mumble settings as sidekiller pointed out.

You can also add or change some of the hotkeys. Turn volume up/down, etc.

I am having the same issue, apparently people can here me talk, but not only can't I hear them, but I can't even see the notification on the side that they are speaking.
I have tried the audio wizard to no effect unfortunately.

Heya Hudyma,
welcome to PR,

Can you please post your system specs:
PRLauncher->Support->"Copy to Clipboard" button,
paste everything in this thread.

It's usually due to UAC privileges and/or read write privileges,
once in a while a HIPS type of antivirus will partially sandbox PRMumble, in a way that disallows PRMumble to overlay on the PRBF2.exe screen,

Also, start PRMumble, like this:
PRLauncher->Options-MUmble Tab->Start Mumble button

in prmumble->Configure->Settings->Press the "Restore to Defaults" blue button on bottom left.

then
GO to COnfigure->Setttings
tick "Advanced" tab on bottom left.
GO to Audio OUtput, make sure it's set to your correct Audio output device (Speakers/headphones/whatever).
Click APPLY if you change the output device.

Close PRMumble.

Try to start PRLauncher. play PR to test.

Same problem here.

Tried a lot of things that were suggested in the forum.

Strangely enough Audio wizard works, when not in-game. But Audio Wizard wont give the sound feedback when in-game.

And sometimes people hear me but sometimes people do not hear me in-game. I can't hear them all time.

Also, my mumble worked perfectly fine 1 day ago, after some restarts.

I did not change anything nor installed any program of some kind those days, nor hardware tweaks.

Things I tried:
-Audio Wizard, tick advanced, network: force TCP mode, disable use Quality of Service (this: https://www.mumbleboxes.com/faqs/13-...hange-channels)
-Restarted PR Mumble several times
-Select right device ofc
-Turning off Anti-Virus
-Checked if volume is up, it is in Mumble. It also is up in default volume mixer of Windows 7.

Tried some more things, can't remember atm. Will be edited too.

Danm it feels stupid :/.

Posting my spec just in case ur interested:

Hey duke, you were in my squad last night.

I run a 500 slot mumble server (unrelated to PR) and most peoples issues stem from settings mistakes, either within mumble or outside it.

Make sure you sound settings in your control panel match the sound settings in your mumble.
You can try downloading mumble (the non-pr version) and seeing if your mic works there, which should give you a good indication what the issue is.

I can help you troubleshoot if you want, just shoot me a PM when you're online.
