      Did you by any change reduce the master sound, in-game at any point? Replays use a separate preference file, and therefore have that set to 100. When you join a game, the 'real' preference file is used and the master sound volume may be different there.

          All sound works fine EXCEPT in game or game lobby after setting up a game in the lobby

            @popsniper Jip means the in game sound settings, but I was also curious about the windows settings so it’s good you checked that. In game settings might be messed up in the audio tab.

              I checked the in-game settings also, and all settings are set to max volume. I even checked the Windows mixer and all are set to max volume. Finally, I tried to play one of the multiplayer campaign scenarios and very low sound there also...couldn't even hear the cut scene sound.

                @popsniper said in Sound too low, but ONLY in a game:

                I reset the headsets to surround sound

                Have you examined the log file yet ?

                    Please go to client > top left menu > Show logs folder > logs > sort by Date Modified. From there, the most recent game log file will be the closest to the top of the list.
