Seriously, I tried with high end system speakers and headphones, tried configuring all sorts of options in sound settings and nothing works. I have no issues in any other games. Does anyone know about this issue? I looked on YT and the sounds are perfectly fine. What is going on?

Same thing is happening to me

Just bought the game, same here haha, tho while on foot it seems okay, but on horse its terrible, missing half the sounds, little to no 'footsteps' sounds or mainly its just massive cluster of interrupting sounds like trrrrppprrrddddttrrrpprrr constantly lol dont think its intended. Also have no horse sirens, but dont know if it ment that way or no, havent watched any youtube videos on the game yet.

Same issue here. No sound effects while on the horse. Really seems weird to see the horse move with no galloping effects.

I found the solution. If you use the "open fresh" beta build of the game then the horseback audio issues no longer happen (at least for me). Right click the game, go to "properties", then click "betas", on the dropdown menu select the "open fresh build". Let the game update and then problem solved.

You are a genius. This is what fixed it for me too. I just realized that I couldn't even hear music from bards all other simultaneous sounds. Here's hoping this build will not have newer issues.

Please, report it all via the in-game bug reporter. So far, we couldn't find the cause of this problem and we could use all the help you can give us by sending more bug reports of this case.

Perhaps this could help in finding a solution? Already reported the bug via game when I opened this thread

Seems like it was fixed with todays update

Yes! I can confirm it is fixed now. No need to use the "open fresh" beta build

Bought this on GoG and the audio is still messed up. Anyone know a fix?

Same, as soon as I mount the horse the sounds disappear, reported in game.

Edit: Beta works..!

Same hear, playing Epic Games version.
