This guide will show you how to solve some audio issues you could encounter, and how to switch between headphones and speakers.
Switching between Headphones and Speakers
Click the sound icon in the bottom right corner of the screen and then next to the volume bar you will see a button which allows you to change the output device.
Click this and you will see your sound options, you will have ‘Speakers’ and ‘Headphones’. Now choose what your preference is and you will then find your audio will have changed.
No Sound from Speakers
Navigate to the sound menu as shown above, and make sure ‘Speakers(Realtek HD Audio)’ is selected.
Check volume is turned up on PC and on the speaker dial.
Make sure the AUX lead is connected to the back of the PC and not loose in the back of the speaker.
No Sound in Content Manager
Open up Content Manager and click Settings in the top right hand corner.
Click on the ‘Assetto Corsa’ tab and then ‘Audio’
Make sure the audio device is set as ‘System Default’
No Sound in iRacing
Load into a iRacing test drive session, then go into options. Navigate into the sound menu at the bottom and then make sure that the sound device is set to ‘DirectSound: System Default’
No Sound through Assetto Corsa
If you prefer to launch through the AC game and not through Content Manager, follow these steps.
Start a practice session in AC, then move your mouse to the far right of the screen. From here you will see a menu appear. Click on the top icon and search for audio, press the audio option and this will bring up the configurator. Click on the desired output(speakers or headphones) then click ‘Set Driver’. (please note you may need to close Assetto Corsa and reopen after changing the audio output)
To remove the audio configurator from the screen, press on the audio icon on the side menu and it will remove it.
