[1779][5.0] On the Astrid, game sounds ignoring volume levels in certain situations

Post by fxfighter » Thu, 24. Mar 22, 21:54

I have 100% reproducible audio issue in the following situations:

* Music plays at 100% volume or perhaps even louder anytime the save screen pops up while on the Astrid, it goes back after the save screen completes.
* The first shot of a volley from the main guns of the rattlesnake seems to go at 100% volume, then every often shot afterwards sounds as expected

Both of these situations are quite jarring.

Perhaps the same sound issue I am having. But for me only in Astrid.
When saving in Astrid the music becomes very loud. When opening the map while in Astrid there is a noticeable sound spike.

Edit: correction. The sound spike is when hitting escape to open the options menu, not when opening the map.

Yes, that's true, it's on the Astrid specifically. I updated the original post, thanks!

I mistakenly wrote that the sound spike is when opening the map. That wad incorrect, it is when hitting escape to open the options menu.
I am correcting this in my earlier post.

Yep, I have the same issue. Pressing "Pause" seems to make the volume hit 100% and then goes to 0%. While playing while flying the Astrid, sound is overall not working properly.

I can confirm this issue. When I'm on board and save the game, music plays very loudly compared to elsewhere.

I have the same problem with the Astrid, also I don't hear a lot of the normal sounds, like travel drive, boost, weapons... I love the ship otherwise, hope this gets fixed soon since its instantly my main ship.

[1779]Bug with Astrid and music?

Post by KalisaFox » Thu, 12. May 22, 14:14

I notice when my music is turned off if i save in the astrid sound comes on, also any time i pause theres a weird blip in sound, like the music thats at the bar is trying to play well im on the astrid. Not sure how i would fix this except ignore it for now i guess, I know theres a mod that adds another version of the astrid that removes the music in it, perhaps il need to try that and see if bug persists.
