Audio Issues after new patch

After the new patch today, the volume for ambience and sound effects could not be controlled. The audio is deafening loud even if you move the bars all they way to the left. In the configuration file for the game, I set the audio to 0 for all audio. When the game launches initially, you can't hear any sound (as it should be). As soon as I choose a character and loads into town, the audio goes back to blaring loud. You can control the audio for the background music, but nothing else. From there I log back to the main title screen and you still have uncontrollable sound sans background music.

Same here, extraordinary loud ambient and fight sounds, unplayable like this, even with speakers turned down to a minimum :-C

yes this issue Seriously makes the game almost unplayable... >.< so sad can not play with my friends no ventrilo because no sound ;'(

i as well am having this sound issue. cant turn down any of the sound except for the music. even with the muted while in background button pressed the game sounds still come through...i can hear the birds in sarn encampment as im typing this. and my god who ever that crying bastard is in the town some body pls kill that guy and put him out of his misery christ. also with the sound so loud i cant use mumble to talk with fellow players.

If it would only be the birds in Sarn encampment, i can hear some man moaning(with pleasure) all the time there too.. :-S


E: Oh, oops, you already said it ^^

Great tip fixed the issue thanks again :)

that seemed to fix the problem for me as well. wonder why auto update didnt catch that one any who ty for posting.

New drivers are not necessary, I've reinstalled same old R1.65 drivers (I use them because of the jack detection problems on newer ones) and it worked just fine.

Edit: re-logged few times and now it's back. Updated to R2.71, works (so far).
