banjo2E Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I'm experiencing an issue where frequently when I turn around while someone's talking they will be muted for a brief moment, usually long enough for me to miss one or two words of what they're saying. This doesn't happen all the time; sometimes I can spin around like an idiot and still hear everything, other times I turn around 180 degrees to walk away from whoever I just talked to and miss half of their closing dialogue. Some searching revealed that Realtek HD integrated sound (which I use) is known to cause problems with Skyrim. However, the issue everyone else seems to have is a permanent inability to hear voices at all in specific directions, and the fix is to switch to 5.1 sound and disable everything except the front speakers. My problem is an occasional inability to hear voices from any direction when I perform a specific action (turning my head/the camera), and using 5.1 sound with everything except front speakers disabled just mutes everything behind me and makes everything in front of me way too loud. I updated Realtek's drivers, and while the stuttering seems to be less frequent it's still present. Has this happened to anyone else here, and if so can it be fixed?
