loss of sound on mass effect andromeda

[Skauron]

No i think the very fact that this got forwarded by bioware to the frostbite dev team is a sure sign that the problem is within the engine. and not your connection as a joiner etc.

This solved my issue with the sound cutting out randomly in multiplayer: 

Go to Settings -> Audio

Scroll down to:  "Ignore Window Focus"

Turn it to:  On

It may not solve it for everyone but I have played for 2 days after setting it and have not gotten the issue again.  That option probably isn't there for consoles probably though.

I had 3 days this week of no sound cutting out.. 3 whole.. lovely days of gaming.. usually its every day.

This week i ensured that discord did not load when windows starts.. and i thought it must have made a difference.. then on day 4.. the sound cut out twice on the same night.

Really glad you've had a few days with the sound behaving.. but lets see over a much longer period of time.  

I've already tried the window focus thing you see, and it still happened when i set that.

I gave the "Ignore Window Focus" thing a try but I still lost the narrator in two of three games. The one I did'nt I was only in for the last 2 waves.

I had to get a new computer after my aged machine died... completely different machine modern up to date and excellent... Sound still drops.

Same here and it annoys me very much. Since day 1 i have this issue and still with the 1.10 update that issue is still there.

Are you people at EA/Bioware even care to fix stuff ???? because so far i didn't see much good fixes on this game.

   For me four days is the longest I have gone without the bug. Then I have had it happen three times in a day at that point I just quit playing. I agree with Skauron, this is in the Frostbite engine as other Frostbite games have reported the same issue. 

  As far as the patches from 1.1 - 1.10 there has been many fixes and the performance and stability is night and day. I think the new maps are awesome.

There are console commands in the engine that might help but they have them disabled.  If they are unable to fix it because its engine related, at least make a console command to restart the sound engine.

  Are any of you having the sound drop out on a certain map more others? For me it is FB Paradox. I think it has happened on all the maps now, but Paradox is the worst. Twice today on that map.
