So this was a weird one and seeing as I just got a new laptop and everything I decided that I have to be able to fix it by myself. Unfortunately I was wrong After 3 hours of head scratching I came up with nothing.

So here's my problem:

Everytime I play a map on any server, and also with core BF2, I cannot hear ambient sounds. I.E birds signing and what not.

Every other sound I can here fine and it's sort of bugging me...

Does anyone have any idea why this my be happening and how to fix it?

I have a creative soundblaster Recon3Di sound card

Try this: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f27-pr ... sound.html

and play with your settings, both within the software and also on your speakers (if they have different music modes). For instance, if I select "direct" it's fine but it I select "stereo" there are some sounds I can't hear in game.

testing now. Made sure that Windows didn't change comms audio levels. We'll see what happens

EDIT: -facepalm- that is all I have to say. Forgot to change my audio settings in game to hardware and then high... lol this makes sense because it was on software and then low... oh dear xD low settings you cannot hear ambient sounds
