    Partial sound problems (no reload,footstep,vehicle...ect)

    Hi,
    I have seen many people like me missing some important sounds in game,like reload or footsteps.It happens to me at about 6-7% completion of the game.
    I have tried every possible solution: 1-fastravel,killing myself in game ect...change nothing
    2-make sure my audio was set to 2 channel at lowest quality...change nothing
    3-Properly uninstall sound driver and install the newest...change nothing (Driver VIA HD)
    4-Properly uninstall sound driver and install different one...change nothing (Realtek HD)
    5-Properly uninstall sound driver and let windows install generic driver...change nothing
    6-Install different version of directx...change nothing


    My motherboard is : GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-USB3 rev 5.0

    All my driver on my pc are up to date.

    The most strange thing is when i use my PULSE wireless stereo headset - Elite Edition everything is fine,i get all sound.But if i want to use my speaker sound disapear.
    The game run smoothly with a evga gtx 760 sc , 8gb ram and FX-6300.

    Pardon me for my bad english

    Be careful, someone might come and tell you that this is happening because you pirated the game... :lol:

    The game is full of bugs, glitches and issues but I do have heard about that bug happening to other people... some loose sound in the middle of a mission but if they ESC to the main menu, or minimap, all sounds are there, if the go back to the gameplay, mute is what they get.

    Finally someone else with this problem. Sometimes the muted sound gets stuck after explosions, but only for footsteps, reloading and a couple of other things. It's random, can't find a way to reproduce it.

    Hopefully it's on the infinitely long list of things to fix.

    I have had my sound go out 2 times during game play. Just saved the game. Closed out and restarted. No idea why or what would cause it, I have a Creative Labs Recon 3D card on my Asus Crosshair V board. I dont think its the hardware, got to be game code. Never had any issues with sound on any other games or applications

    First crash of audio was in Patch 1.4, second was yesterday about 10 minuted into the 1.5 patch play just into the northern part of the map.

    Bought the game on Black Friday from uPlay directly since it was a buy one title get one title free from Ubisoft. So its not a cracked game issue.
