This bug still exists and is worse than ever for me. Is anyone else having this problem?

Sound cuts out during play and between almost every map.

I don't experience it anymore since the new patch, or even the last patch for that matter, but my friends still do.

sounds bug is still there for me also but not being able to mute people talking in game is 100 times worse and driving me away from playing.

I went through about 10 maps on our server today and had no issues with sound at all, where before the patch I did.

Have put my sound settings back on high, and not getting any issues when Arty comes in either.

Will update if any issues arise but so far (fingers crossed) this has fixed the sound issues for me

Yes, sound bug is still present, in fact it happens more regularly than it used to pre-patch. Level change to Spartan, something clicks, then no sound at all until game restart.

Also getting a sound bug of sorts - since I removed the updated beta a week ago, all sound will sometimes go completely distorted and remain that way, co-enciding with hooking and a massive drop in frame rate.

Other times, the sound will fade away over the period of 5-10 seconds to complete silence. Restarting the game fixes the problem.

Prior to this, I usually just got the level start sound bug but it's mutated recently and the patch from yesterday did not help. I tried deleting my ini's and also verified cache integrity.

I think I fixed the problem for myself. All I did was change the sound settings to 128 channels (I was at 8 previously for some reason). Now I get no sound problems at all. This probably won't work for everyone.

Another note: I was unable to change any of the sound settings until I compounded the changes with a video setting (I changed shadow detail at the same time) that caused the game to reset.

For me it's the other way around. I never had sound problems before, but since the last patch I have I had it after finishing first map I am playing.
