Hello, i am able to hear the background noises but not the spotter or crew chief voices. i have looked through all of the posts with the same issue but none of those have fixed the problem. Crewchief is running on default changes and i haven't changed anything.
thank you for your time.

Same here, I have just installed CrewChief V4 for the first time, I can hear the bkg noises when I hit "Start Application" but not the engineer's voice.
Thanks for your help,
Bertrand

the background sound is played by an embedded instance of windows media player. The message sound is played by the built-in .Net sound player. These different streams can end up going to different audio devices.

By default CC will send the message audio to whatever is the Windows default "Playback device" *at the point when CC is launched*. Check your default playback device in the windows Sounds control panel.

If you change CC to enable the "use nAudio for playback" option you'll be able to set a playback device from within the app. You can also use a recently added Windows feature to associate an app with a particular sound playback device. I recommend switching to nAudio only as a last resort - it works but it's more CPU hungry and less stable
