At least since yesterday, Dynamic Music in combat sites has been faulty for me. If I warp into a Serpentis Hideaway, for example, the music changes. At the moment, however, the music in the combat site is played for a few milliseconds and then muted for about 5 seconds until it can be heard again for milliseconds. It’s like one beat every 5 seconds. Dynamic music in Data Sites, on the other hand, works. Otherwise, the music in the game works. Does anyone else have this problem? ---

Since I play on Linux (Steam), I wanted to rule out a Linux-specific problem. As I haven’t read about this issue elsewhere, it seems that only a few or possibly just I am affected by this problem. In the meantime, I tried various things: - Adjusted Pipewire configuration. - Reinstalled updates (by restoring an older version). - Completely reinstalled EVE. - Browsed through loglite messages (nothing unusual). - … Things got interesting when I installed EVE on a Windows laptop (i5 8th, igpu). The problem occurs here as well. This means the issue happens regardless of the OS or hardware, which makes it even more strange 😉 But at least the Windows laptop provides the possibility to create a support ticket (keyword: supported OS). Some minor insights from the process: - The launcher does not start in Steam with Proton 10.0-1 beta. - Replacing a DLL in the tq/bin64 folder isn’t so easy, because at least here (Linux/Steam), the entire folder including files gets recreated. ---

I am actually having the same problem, started last couple of patches… EVE normal music plays normal no issues, however when it changes to combat music it glitches i just hear a “tud…” for like half a second and cuts off, minute later or so happens again like it is trying to start the combat music again I am on Windows 10, haven’t tried anything tho, maybe i try to repair files later. ---

Since I could also hear the problem in other people’s twitch streams, I assume it’s a general bug. Therefore I have now created a bug report. ---

I have the exact same issue in Wormhole Sleeper Combat Sites (Anomalies like Outpost Frontier Stronghold and Solar Cell) and would really like to see this fixed. Music is not playing, but there is short “bump” sound every few seconds. ---

If I see it correctly, you can’t see the status of a bug report anywhere. Since it is imho easy to reproduce I hope that the BR is not closed yet. Since it is vacation time I still have hope 😉 ---

I ran a few tests (some lvl4 missions, combat sites and soe epic arc). Dynamic music in combat sites is bugged as described above but in lvl 4 missions the music works unless you have an acceleration gate. But then sometimes the dynamic music dont stop playing even if you leave the site or mission and the non combat dynamic music starts. So you hear two tunes at the same time. ---
