It does work and when I start the game I have the sound of the ad's (zenixmax, bethesda logo etc.) - after that, when i login (and during the login screen, i just dunno if there ever was sound lol) i dont have any sound, neither in the caracter selection or ingame, although I have sound (youtube videos, music etc.).... any1 else has that problem or know how to fix that?

We need help! I have had the same problem just as you describe it, since an update awhile back & we are not the only ones. I have tried various ways of fixing it; like turning the sound off then back on, rebooting everything (computer & game), checking & rechecking my sound settings, doing a repair...etc., etc....and it seems to be random whether any of these efforts work on any given reload. It is rare for me to get sound now. More often than not I am still stuck trying to get sound. Like you, the intro sound comes on but then there is no sound at log-in area or ingame. There is nothing wrong with my computer & all my other games & music ect. have sound just fine! Please ESO, we love ESO but there are many people struggling to get ingame sound. Help us. Please patch the problem.

Neither one of you disclose the platform and megaserver on which you play TESO, so no one can make a reasonable attempt to provide aid without, at least, that information.

Thank you Shadowshire. Yes, I did say I was using a top-notch gaming computer, so that would be PC category with Win 10 being the latest operating system. I did not mention I was on the NA server however, so I will be sure to mention that. That being said, there are others having the same kind of missing sound problem on other platforms & servers. I've tried all the things mentioned and then some, including what was on the thread you directed me to, (other than buying an external sound card which I should not need to do just for one game). As I said ESO, (although my favorite game), is the ONLY thing I am having a sound issue with. I've checked & rechecked everything on my computer and there is nothing wrong with it. Like some other posters on these threads also experienced, I do get the intro sounds to ESO as it first starts and shows their Beth/Zenimax Logos, but on far too many random days I do not get ingame sound; some rare days I do. I continually try to nail down what makes the difference, but it does not seem to be correlating to anything happening on my end in any way I can use what I have done to repeat success in any reliable manner. The only thing I have noticed is that when the game launches & loads more quickly, those times I am more likely to obtain ingame sound. I will try making an ingame bug report.
