Happened again. Setting to 44100HZ worked - but I had to restart as well

For me it happens when I plug in an HDMI cable into the video card. For some reason the NVIDIA High Definition Audio and Virtual Audio Device cause certain sounds to cut out. I have to disable both of the NVIDIA sound devices in device manager and unplug the hdmi cable from the back of the video card. When I use the hdmi port on my video card and want sound over hdmi I I have to renable the devices. A bit annoying but at least I can hear, "Nuclear Launch Detected" again.

Has everyone tried reinstalling sound drivers? That fixed this issue for me. If all else fails do a clean windows install.

I had the same problem, only heard every sound once or twice, then never again.
Switching to lower hertz did not work

It worked after I run it once through steam. Steam installed a 2009 version of directx before starting the gamea.
I think Elex installed a newer version, and that was what broke the sound

My game sound was not working, each sound played one time then stopped, and the music was switching off/on.

Changing sounds settings from 48000 HZ to 44100 HZ (and restarting the computer) resolved the sound problem too. Thank you!

Method:
-Right click on windows sound icon -> sound devices,
-Right click on active speaker -> properties,
-Advanced statistics tab,
-Sound quality from 48000 HZ to 44100 HZ

I had all the same sound issues. for example, clicking on a factory makes a noise, building noises... they were all gone. Making sure my soundcard was set to Stereo and i changed it from 48000khz to 41000khz fixed it for me. Thank you to Cerberus13

I played two games last weekend and to my surprise the sound problems seem to be over. I disabled HDMI sound in the Windows sound settings and I guess that may have sorted it.

Thanks for explaining how to turn logging on, and I turned it on. I will play some games and upload the game.log. And I have stereo so I guess the surround settings don't apply here.

You need to turn on game logging in faf client. options, setting, turn on game logs

You have surround or stereo? I have similar issue when i forget to turn my surround to 5.1 (defautl settings, but for some non 5.1 movies i swith it to stereo)

Please tell me where I can find game.log. I can't find it using DOS command prompt and "dir game.log /s" from the root on both my drives. I found a lot of SupCom / FAF related folders but no game.log:

D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance
D:\Program Files (x86)\Forged Alliance Forever
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance
C:\Users\[username]\Documents\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance
C:\ProgramData\FAForever

In C:\ProgramData\FAForever\logs I found the following files:
forever.log
replay.log
uid.log

Please attach your game.log file so we can see if your game is having any issues.

I do suspect this to be a non-faf issue and a problem with your environment.
