Game sounds fade away

Post by Son of Odin »

Hello, I have an odd problem sometimes the sounds (spells, arrow shots, explosions, horse galloping etc. ) will nearly disappear, the sound level drops. The background music still is normal. But the sound will fade and later come back. Any one else have this problem?

Are you running any other program besides UO that could affect sound?

If i have skype on at the same time, it will nearly mute UO sounds...

No other programs, just Firefox, but I did reboot the PC the last time and the sound came back. Closing UO/Razor did not help. So, looks like a PC issue. Thanks for the reply.

maybe your soundchip has any kind of sound filter or some kind of ambient adjustment activated ?

Thanks I'll check that out if it happens again. But, it hasn't done it since I posted this.

Does it really matter if the sounds not working good while playing?
I guess it won't matter as long as you get fun with the game you are playing with.
