dixtrian Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) Hello, Since the update to 2.5.6 was made, DCS have no sound. (Yes only DCS, other programs plays sound) Unless I launch it with administrator rights! Administrator will not be always here for this, so if someone have some tips or things to try, I take. Thx pilots Edited February 16, 2020 by dixtrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dixtrian Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Hi right click on the DCS.exe go to properties and tick run as administrator. thanks Administrator do not want this solution, Admin test was for test purpose only. He say that for security reason programs don't have to run in admin when not in an admin session :'( I made a cleanup and repair with no result on sound.

dixtrian Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 So finally I have sound :) Uninstalled Realtek driver and Nahimic. Then installed Realtek driver again. (Not Nahimic) ==> It works. Why only DCS was in trouble? Sometimes IT made me crasy... and I work in xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

probaco Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Hi there, Now I have the no sound issue in 2.5.6.43931 with my wireless headset. In the previous version I had to fiddle with the sound options and select which headset to use and I got it to work. I removed and reinstalled the sound driver, ran it like an admin, still no sound over my wireless headset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
