:arrow_forward: GAME INFORMATION

  • GAME BUILD #: 100.12.27812.0
  • GAME PLATFORM: Steam
  • OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10, Version 2004 (Build 19041.985)

:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

While playing a singleplayer skirmish match, it is not possible to change the music sound settings. Neither changing the music volume nor completely muting the sound has any effect.
Changing it in the main menu on the other hand, still works.

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

  • 75% of the time / matches I play (Seems to work every 4th game or so, calculated the average of 12 games)
    As mentioned above, I have only tested it in singleplayer skirmish, not yet in campaign or multiplayer

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Start a new singleplayer skirmish match
  2. Go to options > sound options
  3. try changing the music volume or mute the music
  4. Hit “Apply”

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

The expected result would be, to be able to change the music volume while being ingame. That however does not work.
