[TF2] Medium and high quality sound linger issue #5715

Open Mentrillum opened 4 months ago

Mentrillum commented 4 months ago

In the 64 bit update with medium or high sound quality and the sounds that are currently being played are echoing while the setting "Silence the audio while the game window is in the background." is on will cause the echo effect to linger whenever you alt tab out. Note that this doesn't happen on low sound quality due to the lack of sound echos.

Here is a video demonstrating the issue:

It seems like the ambient sound only echoes, not the weapon's sound, so that may be intentional from the map?

To verify this is not some sort of ambience intention, I went to a new map that has a quieter ambience allowing for louder sounds to come out. And this happens with things like weapon sounds, player voices, and even voice chat. Prior to the 64 bit update, this sound behavior for alt tabbing with the silence setting on didn't exist.
