Hi

Got a strange problem with audio in game. Tonight when i was playing The Divison 2 the sound kept dropping out when the audio was played through the speakers, switch to headphones and audio is fine. Tried with other games and the same problem. All other audio eg video through youtube and music with spotify is fine through the speakers. Ive recently bought a new optical cable could this be the culprit? and installed a Radeon 7. :confused:

Any help would be great.
 
I'm connecting to a old set of Creative Inspire 5.1 digital speakers which are getting on abit now so no HDMI. The optical cable is brand new from the rain forset, could be faulty I suppose. I'll get another cable and see if that sorts it. Just strange that everything else works fine apart from games.
 
Yes headphones are direct to PC and sound is fine no choppy audio or drop outs. I recently rebuilt my PC into a Phanteks Evolve X case and in the process of taking the cables out of the back of the PC the mini toslink adapter into the sound card snapped with the end stuck in the socket which was removed easily. Could that of damaged the socket? But then surely world all audio be effected?
 
My sound card is a Asus Phoebus and I'm not sure about Dolby digital encoding? As I said my speakers are the Creative Inspire 5700 and sound certainly comes out of all 5 speakers plus sub, I presume it's up mixed? Sorry I don't really know much about it.

After abit of testing tonight I've found that after a cold boot I can run a game e.g. Division2 for about half an hour with audio running fine through speakers before trouble starts and then drop outs. I've ordered another cable to see if that's the problem.
