Problems with Skyrim's sound settings.
Problems with Skyrim's sound settings.
Was last night testing Skyrim SE and it runs smoothly for me. However, I noticed the audio felt off. When focusing on other characters, their dialogue sounds muffled and unclear, but when I shift my gaze or change direction, their voices come through clearly. Initially, I checked speakers and connections—everything seemed fine. Then I tried other games to confirm it wasn’t specific to Skyrim. No problems found. Has anyone else experienced this? From what I understand, the audio settings in the game don’t seem to be the cause. It appears to be a clean install with no mods active at the moment.
The Special Edition is experiencing audio problems because it now uses compressed files instead of the previous uncompressed ones.
