Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Hi, I am having problems with this game in that I have no audio at all. This means no music in the menu when launching the game and no in game audio when I have tried to start a a game.

I have checked the in game menu and all appears to be correct. I have tried toggling the "mute when minimised" and testing that but it doesn't have any effect.

I have seen on another thread on this forum there is a mixer issue but from what I can tell this isn't an issue for me. I have checked all sound drivers and DirectX are up to date so I don't think this is the problem either.

I have just installed the game and have not installed any mods (though does the season pass / delxue version / stellaris dome count if using Steam?).

Obviously I have tried restarting my PC several times and I have tried verifying the game files through Steam, but haven't tried reinstalling as downloads are very slow where I am and I would prefer to avoid this.

Using Windows 10 (1709, build 16299.309)

Can you replicate the issue?
Every blooming time.

Hi.

Thanks, I had seen that thread and intend to follow it, as well as keeping an eye on Reddit and Steam forums.

Nothing I have seen has any effect so far in my case but I hope that will change soon.
