After updating, the sound stopped playing
« on: December 02, 2023, 08:48:18 am »
Hello!
I enjoy playing flight simulators in Japan.(I'm not good at speaking English :'(

GsxPro is a really great addon! However, when I updated the version to 2.8.7 the other day, the sounds related to GSXpro stopped playing.

https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/547541-prepar3d-v44-lowering-the-sound-from-background-apps/ I tried this workaround, but it didn't work.
I tried reinstalling it and also tried changing the Windows settings, but there is still no sound.

How can I solve it?
Is this caused by GSXpro? Or maybe my environment is bad?
I could definitely hear the sound until I updated it, so I think OpenAL is probably not the problem. (I also reinstalled it.)

Is there anyone having the same problem?

Thank you.

If the version you had before the update was one with only one audio device, so you now updated to the new version that supports 3 of them, you need to select your audio devices again.

Thank you for your reply.
I checked, and the audio in settings only says "No device" and I can't select anything.
(All three volumes are at maximum.)
I tried restarting Coutal, but it still says "No device".
It says "The device appears to be working properly"...
Thank you.

Please post your diagnostic log, enabled in the Troubleshooting page of the GSX Settings.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
I'm trying to get the diagnostic log, but I can't get it.
Could you please tell me how to do it?
I was able to enable the diagnostic log through troubleshooting on the settings page, but after that, when I tried to start GSXpro again, it did not proceed past the loading screen, and when I restarted MSFS, the diagnostic log was disabled again. It had become.
I apologize for my ignorance, and thank you for your understanding.

Ok, now run the FSDT Update again, and post a new log after doing that.

Something is wrong here, you are still using the legacy airportCache method, which should have been disabled by the updater. And, you have a sound initialization error for devices that have non-Western names that should have been fixed several releases ago.

Try the offline installer, it seems you are not getting the latest version of everything:
