ENG:
Hey guys,

I was searching around in this forum and have use the ,,search" function but dosen't find any answer or topic to this question.

My problem is following:
When I'm downloading a new skin for my Osu! like the taiko-skin, I can't here the sounds of it.
I have choose the right options! But it's still nothing to hear... I have also re-installed osu (3x), but nothing changed.
Edit: Of some maps is the sound also not hearable...
And I have all the sound drivers I need for my Computer.

On my two other computers(laptops) the sounds of the skins work. And I really don't know why.

GER:
Hey Leute,
Ich habe hier im Forum herum gesucht und die ,,Such"-Funktion genutzt, jedoch konnte ich keine Antwort oder ein Thema zu dieser Frage finden.

Ich habe folgendes Problem:
Wenn ich einen neuen Skin für mein Osu! nehme, z.b. Taiko, kann ich von diesem Skin keine sounds hören.
Ich habe die richtigen Optionen ausgesucht doch trotz dessen höre ich nichts... genau so wenig hat es mit dem mehr maligen installieren von osu! nicht geklappt.
Edit: Von einigen Maps die Musik ist auch nicht hörbar...
Zu dem habe ich alle Treiber die ich für meinen PC brauche.

Komisch ist jedoch das auf meinen zwei Laptops die sounds klappen... ich weis wirklich nicht wieso.

SRB:
ћао људи,

тражио сам у форуму сам и са функтиом за тражење али нисам нашао одговор за моје питање.

Имам следећи проблем:
Кад ја скидам нови скин за мој Осу!, као Таико онда не чујем никакав звук.
Имам тачне опције и инсталирао сам Осу! више пута... али опет ми неиде звук од скина.
Edit: Од неке музике исто се нечује звук...
А све driveri што ми требају имам.

Некапирам зашто ми иде скин на моја друга два лаптопа...

JPN:
どもう、

私はプロブレム・・・私のOSU!サウンド（太鼓スキン）は壊れた・・・でも何でですか？サウンドは消えません。
Edit:そして、いくつかのマップも消えません・・・
私のづらイワとOSU!オプションはオーケーです！

私のラップトップのサウンドはオーケー。

お願いします、たすけて～。


- It would be really nice if you can help me!

Right options:

1. All volume on effects
2. On the skin options, select "Use skin's sounds samples

If you've done this, but the skin doesn't work properlym try downloading directly: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=662. Extract it on to the skins folder on osu!'s program folder.

Thanks for the replay, but it dosent work at all.

I've forgot one thing to say:
It's also not possible to hear the music of some maps.

hast du bei den skin optionen die custom sound aktiviert??

wenns dann nicht geh hat wahrscheinlich der skin einen fehler oder dir fehlen dateien

schau mal in den skin ordner von osu wo du deinen skin hast den du benutzen magst und versuch die sound datei so zu öffnen und ob es dann funktioniert (also ob die ausserhalb von osu funktioniert).

Danke für deine Antwort Hanyuu,

jedoch tat ich dies auch schon.
Doch habe ich gemerkt, das die Sound-Datein(WAV) nur 0:00:00 sec lang sind, und deswegen vll. der PC die Datei als unhörbar nimmt...
Vll. bringt es ja etwas wenn sie 1sec lang ist? - Doch das kann nicht sein da sogar 3min Lieder nicht gehen... :s

MfG.,

Sorry for reminding again, but my problem is over 2 months active.
It seams that no one can help me with it, but would some one who now peppy well, contact him please? -> I think he have no time to answer any PM's from me.
Maybe he know what the real problem is...

I have no idea what's going on so update your soundcard drivers or fiddle with your sound settings or something. The video recording program is pulling the audio indicating that osu! is still playing the sound, but when you're running osu! the sound is being output to something inaudible? That doesn't explain why you can hear soft samplesets though.

But as a word of advice, since it's only you that has this problem (afaik), 99% of the time it means something to do with your system configuration is the root of the cause.

What's your operating system? I'm thinking...Windows XP. Oh, and what's your speaker setup like?

@awp:
Well I dunno what the problem is, just speculate... but I will try to update my sound drivers and search again a new one. Maybe it's the wrong one.

@soradg123:
No, it is Win7.
What to say about it... it's just a Blue Setup from Realtek. It's an other setup as the one I had before.

I want you to try this experiment then:

1. Right click on the speaker icon in your system tray and choose "Playback devices"
2. Open osu!

• a) Play a beatmap where you can hear the song but not the sfx
  b) Take note of the devices that are active in both the playback and recording tabs
  c) Play a beatmap where you can't hear the song or the sfx
  d) Take note of the devices that are active in both the playback and recording tabs
  e) Look for contradictions and use logic

3. Report your detailed observations and conclusion here

a + b:
playback -> has recorded the sfx sound.
recording -> has not recorded the sfx sound.

c + d:
playback -> has recorded the song and the sfx sound.
recording -> has not recorded the song and the sfx sound.

My conclusion is that the problem comes from the PC, and not from Osu!.
Maybe the driver need something to be able to play the sounds from the sfx and some songs.
-> ,,But what should it be?", would be my question.
-> ,,And why can the driver play the soft sfx from Osu! ?"


That's all I can say about it...

Do you have headphones? I want you to try using something other than your speakers. I know your speakers aren't broken but perhaps your odd configuration only affects speakers. As long as your computer recognizes it as something other than your speakers it should be fine.

I used also my headphone. Nothing changed.
Edit: I was also thinking about that, and I've tried to change the options. But also nothing changed.

YES! I was able to reproduce your situation on my own PC! I simply forced 5.1 Speakers in my audio configuration and voila!

I think it's because osu! doesn't support more than stereo sound.

WoW, wow, wow! That's a really nice message!
How do you changed it? - I'm not really good in things like sounds.

Hopefully, there should be another icon in the system tray other than the Windows icon that messes with audio configuration.

ZOMG!!!!!jdsaköldh...!

Okay, okay... first step is solved...omg... it works...O_O!
But now I can't here the other sounds I was hearing at the beginning. Every thing turned off, and the taiko and Ronald sounds are now on. xD

[Edit:] And when I use the Headphone, it turns again everything. Is it possible to configurate the sound in a way, to hear it every time, never mind with what? ( I hope that was not to bad english )

[Edit2:] okay... zomg, I turned the Headphone into 5.1 and the Speakers into 2.1. Now it works! But it sucks a little bit to play with headphones when the song is playing on speakers. xD

[Edit3] Now the question is: ,,How to get 2.1 and 5.1 to be one?"

have you tyed turning up all the sounds in OSU!? like the Volume master Volume Effect and Volume Music?
i had the same problem but i fixed it in a snap. i just restarted my computer.
