    All the sounds are ok,Background Music is off

    Hello,
    yesterday i redeemed my Far Cry 4 Pc key on Uplay.
    Everything is ok in-game,but speaking of sounds...
    all the sounds are ok,like radio...voices...animals...enemies...steps...every thing....but I only noticed today,that i have no backgorund music.
    it works only during missions...
    I loved this game when i played on my friend's pc this winter...and especially I loved his soundtracks,like Unfamiliar Paths.
    The only thing that i tried to do,reading forums is...upgrading my Audio driver...uninstalling and reinstalling latest DX versions and I tried to lower my bitrate to 16bit,44100Hz....but nothing changed..
    All the sounds are ok,the background music is off.
    Any other suggestions?Thanks

    Are you referring to the ambient music? Such as music from the OST?

    Plenty of people are experiencing the same problem. It also appears to be across all platforms. I have an open ticket referring to the problem, but so far the only replies I have been getting are the usual "check your settings" and "uninstall and re-install the game" type responses. I just hope the issue doesn't get ignored and they fix it.

    Ok ...
    well as i thought the uninstall and re-install game thing did not work.
    the only thing that i read is that this thing came out from the 1.6 patch...so now we have the 1.10 patch and the thing is not solved yet,so i don't think they're gonna fix it anymore

    Yeah I get that feeling too. It's sad. Maybe Ubisoft should focus more on quality, not quantity for games! I'm going to keep an open ticket about the issue anyway. With a bit of luck, there will be enough of us with open tickets that something gets done.

    I have the same issue and that's really anoying :/ I uninstalled/reintalled Uplay en FC4, updated the sound drivers but the problem remains. I opened a ticket 10 days ago but still no answer. Please Ubisoft, do something!

    The problem occured with the 1.9 version. I tried v1.8 and the music was back, but no music with the 1.9 and 1.10 version.
    I'm on discussion with Ubisoft support team and will tell if they find a solution.

    I think Ubisoft will not make any new update for FC4 :/ So, as a workaround, I bought the soundtrack, edited all the music I missed in the game (Track 2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 23 and 30) with Adobe Audition (Any music editor software will do the job), added a 5 minutes blank at the end of each track, start playing all tracks in shuffle mode, get to the game, disabled the music in game, then played Far Cry 4 with music. But It's a bit funny to hear those sweet music while finghting in Shanath arena
