Problem: When I launch D2 PB, I can hear the game just fine, but I cannot hear any other sounds on my computer. (IE: Chrome, Youtube, Discord, Spotify, any other media, Etc)
All background sounds completely cut off unless I close the game.
I have the same issue in Division as well. Which is still downloaded today and I still play it.
Every other game I play (GTAV, BO4, Ring of Elysium, Warframe, SWTOR, All Assassins Creed Games), they all work fine.
Since I do YouTube and stream from time to time, I invested into a XLR Cardioid Microphone, which requires phantom power provided by a mixer/interface.
Below are my current specs, and will be completely rebuilding my PC soon as it is fairly dated, but still able to run a lot of things.

I even tried doing a google search and other players have also had the same issues in the past with no definitive answer.

I'm loving the beta so far, and I really haven't had any issues besides the occasional disconnect - which have already been addressed - I just cant play/record it with friends as any background audio is not working.
Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.Thanks![]()
