Fortnite Audio Issues on Windows 11: Fix
This issue can easily overturn the results of a match as voice chat and audio plays a vital role in any Battle Royale. So, to fix this issue, follow the below-mentioned methods:
1) Firstly, we would be changing some in-game settings. Open Fortnite and head to the ‘Video settings.” Under the “Advanced Graphics settings”, make sure to enable the Allow Multithreaded Rendering option. To further decrease the chances of audio lag, set the Frame Rate Limit to 160.
2) After changing the Video settings, jump right away to the Audio Settings. Here, set the main volume and voice chat option above 50%. If you are using stereo headphones, make sure to enable 3D Headphones. Now, the most important part of Audio Settings is to choose the right device. You must select the right type of device that you are using in the Audio and Voice Chat Output Device and Voice Chat Input Device. Setting them to default can create an issue at your end.
3) Windows 11 Sound Settings: Search for Sound Settings in Windows Search Bar and open it. After that, make sure the Input Device and Output Device are rightly selected. Also, make sure to check the microphone and output volume. Increase the volume if necessary. If you are still unable to fix your issue, go to the Advanced Section in Sound Settings and click on “Troubleshoot common sound problems” for Output and Input devices.
4) Update Drivers for Input and Output Devices: To update your Input and Output Devices, head to Device Manager (from Windows Search Bar) > Audio Inputs and Outputs > Select and right-click on your Preferred Audio Device > Update Driver.
