Guild Wars 2

I had this problem, mostly on Claw of Jormag, but often in other areas as well.

I made a couple tweaks and since haven’t had it happen again in the past 9 days.

First off, this is for Nvidia cards (yes, I know that’s video).

Go into Device Manager and make sure all high def audio devices are off other than what you are using. If it’s a discrete card, such as Sound blaster, it will be listed as such. If it’s onboard audio from the motherboard, it should list it as Realtec or something like that. Just right click the “high def audio device” listings and disable.

Then open up the Nvidia control panel, and under the “Set up Digital Audio” settings, look for HDMI and select “Turn Audio Off” and “Apply”. This makes the assumption you are using separate speakers for your audio or not using pass-thru cable from the monitor for your sound.

You may have multiple instances of HDMI, so scroll down that pain to make sure all are turned off and make sure to apply the settings.

Give that go and see if it works.

Thanks, going to give it a try and see how it goes!

Clever idea. Thanks for the tip.

Tried it, but sadly I got the siren again
