Hi all
I have some very frustrating audio bugs that's been occuring for the past few patches. I can't say exactly which patch introduced these problems, but I've had them for nearly a year now.
Sometimes when I minimize or tab out of the game (exclusive fullscreen or windowed doen't seem to matter). Eventually microphone chat breaks. Also some bizarre bugs start appearing throughout gameplay. When I tab back into the game, the problems I experience are:
Voice chat being broken is my biggest issue, but I also get some bugs that only occur at the end of a round/replay
I don't really know how else I can describe this. Its the most baffling series of bugs ever that seem to happen from an event that isn't even related. Obviously a solution is to never alt-tab but I can't really commit to that. Also I have absolutely no problems with every other game I play except Siege.
So far i've tried reinstalling Siege, drivers, Windows (previously Win10 2009, downgraded to 1909 and issues persist). I have no other input devices, I've disabled and enabled Windows Spatial Sound.
My PC specs:
Windows 10 1909
Ryzen 3950X
32GB RAM (XMP enabled)
RTX 3080
SoundBlaster ZxR soundcard (my only output device)
ModMic 5 USB (only input device)

- No one hears my voice
- I can't hear anyone speak
- The voice indicator on the right side of the screen doesn't appear for my team mates anymore. But mine appears when I press Push To Talk keybind
Voice chat being broken is my biggest issue, but I also get some bugs that only occur at the end of a round/replay
- The player being followed during replay; their gunshots produce no sound, or the gunshot sound plays in repeat permenantly until the next round starts
- No audio on drones
- No movement audio (player running, crouch/prone noises)
- As soon as the round ends the player camera teleports to a random position in the map, usually looking at a wall or the floor
- When the victory screen appears the camera is facing a random wall or floor so I cannot see the squad characters victory pose
