(2022) No Audio after Newest Update

This thread was added on July 08, 2022, with posts from TheStevieT.

Original Post

Exhausted from 24hrs of troubleshooting and don't wanna double check so, in short, delete this if it breaks rules (No Video because Audio issue.. I skimmed em now)

Ever since the recent update my game has had ZERO audio and here's what I've done in no specific order:

- Re-installed Fortnite (Numerous times)

- Re-installed Epic Games launcher (Multiple times)

- Deleted Local "%appdata%

- Deleted GameSetting file

- Editing GameSettings file (Near the bottom "AudioOutputDeviceID" was set "=" to nothing, not sure if that's normal)

-Re-installing Windows

-Removing Drivers and replacing them with all the newest as per each products manufacturer

-Looked over Windows 10 Sound settings to ensure there no issue on windows end (Windows trouble shooter detects no problems and that device is working "normally"

Extra Notes:

-After deleing Local appdata files and logging into a new account, My sound returned only to be lost once I loaded into any playlist (Repeatable on multiple accounts, said account now becomes bugged with no audio thereafter)

-ALL OTHER Windows sounds work normally or as expected

-Device I am using is set to Default Device with no Enhancements

-Changed the Quality of the Audio to most Windows options

I check Trello and the issue doesn't seem to be listed, however there was a tweet possibly referencing this problem at 9:50 AM EST. My major concern comes from the fact that it seemed to "spread" to my other accounts once I logged in and loaded into a match (There was audio now there's none like my main account)

Anyone else on the brink of insanity As well? Have they cleared the issue they refenced at 9:50 since its not on Trello? Does that mean this is a different issue? Find out.... hopefully here....

It looks like this Status post didn't get many eyes on it. It's something we're aware of and looking into.
