Sound issues (pretty serious i think)
I have i& 6700K, with 32GB Ram. I'm running on a gigabyte Z170X-Gaming 7 Motherboard using the built in Creative sound chip. Soundblaster Recon3i. Latest drivers on a fresh install of Windows 10 (installed 1 week ago with minimal other apps). All drivers are up to date. 10.0.17134.1 is the speaker driver version from device manager. Again, it's the latest from the gigabyte site.
The first time this happened was in the DZ. Heavy fighting lots of noise. The sound driver just sort of blew out. you could still hear sounds but were terribly modulated. No other lag issues just the sound was scratchy and awful. I exited and the sound issue persisted to the desktop. After a reboot everything was fine.
Second time was in the end game mission. Sounds just sort of lost the background? Not sure what all is missing, but music is gone, gun sounds come and go, it's really really quiet. I hear the stupid "backup request" just fine...a little modulated, but the way it always sounds.
Another issue related to the end game, is that the SR-1 with first blood isn't working. It's still red even when I equip the 12x scope. I didn't check if it was on in the beginning, but noticed it was off after swapping the scope.
thanks
