brlarson Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I unbound the Toggle Sound hotkey a long time ago, I just double checked and it isn't bound a any keystroke, but when I am in a GSF match my sound toggles off several times during each match. This is extremely annoying as I usually play a strike fighter and I am unable to hear the beep to indicate a missile lock and therefore miss chances to fire them. What's worse is that when I hisc to turn the sound back on before I respawn, sometimes it closes the respawn window and I can't figure out how to bring it back up. Subsequently I am forced to either quit the match and miss out on the experience and requisition points or stare at the last thing I saw before I was killed until the match is over. Has anyone else experienced this? I looked through the Galactic Starfighter tab in Keybindings and didn't see a Toggle Sound option there...

Because there is a bug for win XP in which players loose sounds during GSF matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brlarson Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 I'm usind Windows &. I read about the XP bug, but those players describe losing sound at the beginning of the match. Mine simply toggles off when I use certain abilities during the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanNV Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Not sure if it's still an issue, but during testing some of the keybinds are there even if you removed them. So, if that keybind is hard coded into GSF< you've got it and could be turning it on and off yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brlarson Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 That seems to be the case. I'll have to rebind my abilities to different keys. Thanks for the response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadishist Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) I have the same problem when I keybind the power converters to Ctrl+1/2/3/4 on my Logitech MMO mouse. Using Win 8. Edited January 2, 2014 by Sadishist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itkovian Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 By default the sound toggle is set to CTRL-S, and there is a bug in GSF which keeps the toggle there regardless of what else you set it as. Therefore, if you use CTRL for anything (I use it as my voice chat's Push-To-Talk button), you WILL toggle your sound on and off periodically as you press both CTRL and S. This is a bug, as GSF should respect the "Toggle Sound" keybind. Hopefully it will be fixed shortly, as it is quite annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
