Forza 5 Sound Problems ?

Im having sound problems with Forza 5 on the Xbox One, I have a brand new Samsung smart tv, the sound is fine on everything else except Forza 5 ! When playing the sound is fine, until you start racing, then the engine sounds & crashes etc all sound distorted/muffled,
like broken speakers ? Then when the race is over, the interlude music is fine - I thought it was the tv, being ultra thin - it couldnt handle the bassy sound effects - but when I switch to different games, its fine - explosions etc on BF or Ghosts no problem
?? So surely the tv itself is fine otherwise the speakers would sound crap with everything.... Ive tried adjusting the Forza 5 in-game sound settings but nothing seems to resolve it. Anyone else having similar trouble ?? Any ideas ??

:)

How about Forza 5, I'm having problems uploading Forza 5 clips.

 

Forza sound problems

I had sound problems after update but was fine after reboot

 

Change system sound too Stereo uncompressed

 

In the Xbox One settings ? How come the sound is fine with other games then m8 ? Dont mean to doubt you, but sat here at work & cant try your fix solution till I get home...

 

Yes the Xbox One setting's. not sure why it has sound problems,

but i had this same problem and that setting fixed it.

I hope this help's

 

Started to have sound problems today after I installed the Road America track will try out his solution the next time I play it hope it fixes the problem.

 

Hey Op, I find that I completely lose all sound with F5 when I switch to the dashboard, not all the time, but sometimes.

 

I changed hdmi cords and it brought the sound back

 

A bit off topic, but kind of Forza 5 sound/music related, but does anybody else find the music so mind dumbingly boring? It nearly puts me to sleep when I'm waiting for the next race to load up!

 

I had similar sounding issues, all sound effects were horribly digitally garbled in Forza 5.

The tech support guy had me do two things which seemed to fix the problem:

1.) Clear the persistent storage first. on the Xbox One Dashboard, please go to Settings >> Disc and Blu Ray >> Persistent Storage >> Clear Persistent Storage. Please do this step 3 times.

2.) Next, we need to clear the MAC alias.

Please go to Settings >> Network >> Advanced Settings >> Alternate MAC >> Clear Alternate MAC >> Then restart the console.

 

wow, that solution worked for me too (rdb32606's one) but how the heck would any of us figure that out on our own? I was re-routing cables, removing drives, anything I thought was causing the garble

 

besides the sound, anyone find the game lagging? i.e. you have to press A many times to advance, etc

 

tried ddb32606 solution and it worked. I'm happy it has stopped the problem, but I want to know why it happens. This is what I hate about MSoft. You always have to intervene somewhere. Never have problems like this with Apple. Starting to think I should
have bought PS4.

 

One thing I've discovered is that yes, clearing the Persistent storage will work, (for 1 maybe 2 races) especially well (maybe 5 races or so) if the clearing of the alternate MAC (which forces a reboot, not sure it does anything else if you don't have an
alternate MAC defined), BUT the issue always comes back. I've been a Forza faithful since original xbox and original Forza, this issue is maddening tho, to the point where I don't want to hear anything about Forza 6 until they get the noise issue with Forza
5 worked out. Just my .02 - since this has been a problem since 'go' on Forza 5 and continues to be... looks like there isn't going to be a fix? Anyone heard anything from MS or Turn10?
