4.7.2 Build has no sound!

I have read that this problem was supposed to be fixed so can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I created a copy of my project from 4.6.1 to the new 4.7.2 and a few small things were shifted but the biggest problem is that I have no in game sound nor in editor sound. Any suggestions?

Hey GameHatcher,

Check to make sure these options are enabled so your sound works while in the Editor.

First place to check is within your ‘Editor Preferences’ within the ‘Miscellaneous’ section. There is an area that says ‘Sound’. Be sure you have the ‘Enable Editor Sounds’ checked.

Enable Editor Sounds Option

Second place you will want to check are the settings within your main viewport. Use the images as reference to help you locate these settings.

Real Time Audio

This setting enables audio while in your active viewport when Real Time is also enabled.

Let me know if any of these suggestions fixed your issue, or if you need further assistance.

Cheers,

Perfect! Works fine now…I actually just verified the 4.7.2 and that fixed the issue.

It isn’t work for me…, anyone can help me?

Hey Migui GO,

Would you mind elaborating on your specific issue?

  • If you right click on a Sound Wave in the Content Browser, and press play, do you hear any sounds?

  • Have you made sure the Volume Controls on your OS are not muted?

  • What platform are you working on i.e. Mac, PC, or Linux?

Thank you,

I actually have the same problem as Migui GO.
I followed Andrew’s instructions word by word. My realtime is enabled, but my realtime audio was muted. Even so when I fixed it, it did not fix my problem. As for the preference settings, I turned them on, still no sound.

Nevermind. I simply followed the same instruction and I just had to restart the program and then it worked for me.
