Cannot hear blaster fire

[beasTer]

Somewhere over the course of my campaign, I stopped being able to hear blaster fire. I have restarted the game, changed the audio settings on my desktop (from 5.1 to stereo and back), etc. I'm trying to find out if there is a way to restore those sounds without starting all over (the issue came up so long ago I don't even recall where to go back to in order to fix it. Heck I'm on the last level now... just getting old not knowing I'm being shot at until a laser hits me)


I purchased the game via Steam recently, in case it helps (so I'm assuming it is up to date).


To further clarify, I still hear my lightsaber slashing, and I even hear the enemies talking. Blaster-fire of any sort and some audio in cutscenes won't play (the explosions involved with killing an ATST or even an ATST landing)

I found the problem when I arrived at Raxus Prime (the second time) I lost all the sounds for:
1. Blaster Fire.
2. DMM sounds (glass, metal, etc.)
3. Some destruction sounds (ATST landings, ASTSs being destroyed).

So far, I haven't found a fix for it. I'm in communication with Aspyr about another issue, so I'm going to ask them about this one.

I'm also having the same sound issue. Win7 x64 with a Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme audio card.

Be sure to post back if you resolve the issue

Well, I don't have a resolution, but Aspyr informed me that if you have a 5.1 surround sound system, then it's a known issue with them and they're working on it.

So I guess we just need to wait

On the up side my sound did return on a later level so that's a plus. Awfully weird missing that many sound FX though; feels like your ears are waterlogged.

Reloading back to imp Raxus bugged the sound again so it appears to be reproducible, at least on my system.

this one everyone says, check ur computer for viruses cause when i had a virus it would show up on mcaffe and i deleted it but it disabled a function on my sound card. make shure u have the 1.2 edition and update your drivers if it still doesnt work then reinstall (if your really that serious about it)
