Title: Odd Wii U Glitcch: dialog audio during cut scenes
Post by: ShyGuy on August 25, 2013, 10:21:04 AM
Okay, so on three games now, I have an issue where the voice work for a cut scene will drop in and out. The rest of the sounds are fine; background music, sound effects, ambient noise, all good.
Is this a known issue? an HDMI cable problem? A sound channel issue?
Resident Evil: Revelations - Probably about two thirds of the time, no voice audio, just subtitles. occasionally the voice work would sound really far away.
Lego City Undercover - Started cutting out, but not as frequent. Maybe 25% of the time.
Splinter Cell: Black List - Has down it a couple times now.

It has happened with me but only Sam Fisher drops everyone else speaks. Pikmin had no issues and I don't have any other games with cutscenes

Have you checked audio volume on your gamepad?
Many game separate channels to make characters' voice sound only on gamepad.

It's probably what azeke mentioned. It's happened to me too.

So APPARENTLY this glitch is caused if you have your gamepad audio set to surround. Kicking it down to Stereo appears to fix the audio cutting out issue. Can anyone verify this?

Do you have surround sound? If not then, then I imagine it's not a glitch but that's how it's supposed to work.

well this was the surround sound on the gamepad. I guess you need surround sound headphones for that?

No a surround sound system for your house. The Gamepad only has stereo output, but if you have a surround sound system at home and have the Gamepad set to surround, then only hearing the main character talk through the Gamepad would be the appropriate way to do it.

I also have blacklist i have the same issue but also in Mass effect 3 Wii U and Batman Arkham City Wii U I thought it had something to do with my surround sound system but i guess not.

Maybe this is a problem with the Gamepad firmware...
