Hi @all,
I’ve spoken with one of our Audio Developers about this, and they suggested to try the following please:
- Verify Integrity of Game Files
- Right-click Vermintide 2 in your Steam library sidebar
- Select ‘Properties’
- Select the ‘Local Files’ tab
- Select the ‘Verify Integrity of Game Files’ button
- When complete, close and reopen Steam
-
Set Audio Channels to Stereo headphones (or speakers if you use speakers)
-
Set Audio Quality to ‘High’
If this still doesn’t work as intended, there may be some local changes to your sound (e.g. some surround/5.1 headphones come with software to emulate surround or spatial sound) - please try disabling this if so.
From the testing we’ve done everything appears to be okay, but if there are cases where sounds are definitely not playing for you, then a video if possible of this happening would be very helpful 
Lastly, if a Packmaster sound is not playing, then it means it’s likely sliding around and not playing its animation. This has been looked at before, but if this bug has returned then a video of this to confirm would be great and helpful for us to see what may have caused it.
Please let me know how you get on.
Thanks!
