PC Gaming: Black Screen with Sound In Background

The video is fine, and other audio continues fine. Nothing in particular changes to cause this. I've read people having this happen once every couple months or so, but I've had it twice in the last week, and a few times before that. It's absurd that applications still don't work with the OS properly these days, but it is what it is. I have not changed my audio device, I learned quickly that FFXIV doesn't follow the system default, or recognize switching. As title says, game audio cuts out randomly. I've posted here before about it in some other thread a couple months or so back. If I start as bluetooth 1-way, and I change, same thing And my absolute favorite: If I start as either bluetooth setting doesn't matterand I disconnect my device entirely, it crashes the game Once again, no other application has this issue, just ff It's happened a few times to me also. If I start as bluetooth 2-way, and I change my device settings, I have to restart the game to get it to realize the change - even though almost every other application I use is able to do the change properly. The only thing it really "supports" is going from speakers to old-fashioned mm headset and back assuming the same speaker devices are used For example, I have a headset that I can use in various modes bluetooth 2-way, bluetooth 1-way, and as a regular headset. Did you switch audio devices? This game doesn't support device switching well or at all really. I searched around a bit, and looks like others have been facing this problem for quite a while too a year or morebut I didn't find a report on the forums, so here it is. It's just the game, all other audio on my PC works fine. I have to either suffer through the rest of the run with no audio, or have the group wait for me to restart the game. of 3 1 2 3 Last Jump to page: Results 1 to 10 of I haven't been able to find any rhyme or reason to it, but it is really annoying in group content.
