Windows 10 Audio Device Issues

Recommended Posts

I sometimes need to switch Audio Devices headset to speaker or speaker to headset. 
With Wurm, this cannot be done in game. The option does not exist. 
If done in windows, a restart of Wurm is required because it cannot switch audio context while the game is running in windows10. 

I also have a headset that has a bad usb port on it (HyperX Orbit - great sound very bad build quality). If I move my head too much the audio cuts out and Wurm will not reacquire the device. Wurm is the only game and/or applications that does not reacquire the device. Other users confirmed this is not an issue with Linux or Windows 7. So it seems the the issue has to do with Wurm and windows 10.

I am not sure if it is important but this happens in Windows 11 too.

 

Sometimes I need to switch from speakers to headphones and the only way to do that is by restarting wurm, cause wurm will always keep using the speakers unless I start wurm with the headphone plugged in (on which I can only use the headphones and not switch to speakers unless I quit wurm, unplug the headphone and start wurm again)
