P3d V5.1 Sound stops after going to another screen

Post by BlueBird1 »

Morning all,
In V5.1 when I go to another screen my sound goes off on p3d, but goes back on if I click on the P3d screen. In the settings I have Pause on Task unchecked and under sound settings in P3d the Mute on Lost Focus is unchecked as well. Thoughts??

Respectfully,

@ BlueBird1 ,

How many screens are you using?

Just to verify are you testing with the default aircraft?

"but goes back on if I click on the P3d screen"
Meaning it has "focus" again.

What if you Check the Mute on Lost Focus ?

I will do a quick test.

Edit:
Which App is on your "other" screen?

@ BlueBird1 ,

The problem is with your custom setup.

@ BlueBird1 ,

Do you have a custom home cockpit setup?

@ BlueBird1,

If you go to display and uncheck "Black out Desktop" that should give you sound even when searching the internet and not within the active p3d window.
