Arma 3 Audio quiet in 1st person, normal in 3rd

Recommended Posts

I have been having a bug in Arma 3 where the audio in 1st person sounds super quiet but in 3rd person it would sound normal. This also happens to vehicles as well, quiet in 1st person but normal sounding in 3rd person. I have done the steam "verify integrity of game files" after that didn't work I did a full uninstall/reinstall of the game. still nothing.

 

Example of the bug: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MokMxWNpaZo&feature=youtu.be

I checked it and I do not have this problem, the sound of Katiba is different than on your video - loud in the 1st person and quieter than the 3rd person.
Do you use any mods? Try to test it without MODs.

No mods are installed, all vanilla 

1. Check it out in: game > settings > add-ons.

should be so, or less. https://imgur.com/T4vBGJW

2. Check file cache on Steam: game (right click) > properties > local files > check game files

What audio device/format are you using? There is no audio on the right channel of your video.

I am using a Steel Series Arctis Pro wireless headset with a Blue Yeti mic

1. Looked the same as yours did

2. I did the file verification thing steam has, no missing files.

USB? Optical? Do you hear the right channel in your headphones? Have you tested using your PC's onboard audio with some regular headphones/earbuds?

Just fixed it, steel series headphones have that stupid thing with game chat and voice chat, two different audio lanes or something, I had chat mode as my main playback device which apparently has 1 channel 16bit at 48000 Hz must have been coming out of the left speaker, and now the game chat audio lane thing is a 2 channel 16bit 48000 Hz now coming out of both speakers. and now audio in Arma sound normal.
