Can't hear any sound

[Cassandra Keneinan]

I'm using the latest Firestorm viewer.

I used to be able to hear sounds. Ambient noises, streaming tunes (dj's, parcel music, etc) when I turned those on too. Now I can't hear anything.

I've had a couple friends trying to help me get it working. We've seemingly exhausted all the more common causes. Are there some that aren't as common that maybe my friends wouldn't have know about?

Also, Firestorm used to show up in my Windows 10 "volume mixer" dialog box, but it's not there any more. Just "SLPLUGINS" in numbers ranging from zero to 4 or so. I'm not sure if that's why I can't hear anything (FS not showing up there), but I can't figure out how to get it to show up there again.

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks!

First thing to try now is to restart your PC, then try again.

Ok thanks, I rebooted this morning. Firestorm showed up for a little bit on my "volume mixer" dialog box in Window 10 but at some point disappeared. But regardless there's still no sound. No parcel sound, no ambients, etc.

 

What do I try next?

Never mind the SLPlugin's. Go to your Preferences and play with this setting..

Ok! We're getting closer! I switched that back to "default" and it got all the sounds/ambient stuff working again! But still no parcel streams are working.

So, what's next?

Next is to go to another parcel preferably a club click on your play music button and enjoy your weekend. Your parcel's stream is probably offline.

I"m assuming the parcel's stream is online, I keep getting messages in my local chat "Now Playing:" and the song name/artist?

Ok did you restart your viewer? If not you should.Also check if you have it muted from firestorm.

I restarted my viewer and it appears that it may be working now! Yay!  Two parcels have given me music. I'll be trying it out on more next. Thank you!!
