I'm running P3D v4.1 with the latest Accu-Sim Update.
I've noticed clicking the headset jacks in the latest version doesn't do much, at least not what I'd expect. It muffles a small amount of the wind noise and that's it. There is no affect on the engine sounds or anything else, it's just as loud with the headset "on" or "off."
I've noticed this with the C182 as well. The headset muffles a little bit of the wind noise but the engine noise is unchanged. (In the C172 and Cherokee 180 the headphone jacks perform as expected.)
Is there a fix for this or anything I can do to make it work properly? I know I can reduce the sound volume in the Shift-3 panel but I like the convenience of being able to turn the headset "on" and "off" for different phases of flight.

Re: Headset Sounds
The headset works as expected with the Comanche and the 182 in my installation of P3Dv4.1 SimCaesar, muffling engine sounds dramatically.
Have you checked to make sure the volume control is set at 100% in the shift 3 window? If it's already turned down quite a bit, this would explain the issue you describe.
Thanks,
Nick

Re: Headset Sounds
I have the volume turned up 100% in Shift-3.
I created a quick video to demonstrate what I'm talking about. The C172 (which is working correctly) is shown first for comparison. (This video is unlisted so as not to show up in YouTube search results.)

Re: Headset Sounds
Seems to be you have some bug. Its not normal. Did you tried to make a completely reinstall of Comanche?SimCaesar wrote:I have the volume turned up 100% in Shift-3.

Re: Headset Sounds
I'm not so sure. The video seems pretty consistent with the level of sound attenuation I notice with the headset on in the Comanche. I think you have to bear in mind that other factors (such as whether the cabin soundproofing is installed) will tend to make a difference too.
However, the headset simulation does seem more effective at reducing the higher pitched engine note in the 172. This is no bad thing in my opinion. Maybe we get ANR sets in the Cessna, and an old set of David Clarks in the Comanche!

Hello,
yes from what I see and hear in the video that sounds about right.

Re: Headset Sounds
OK thanks for the feedback everyone, I'll just live with it the way it is, and hope that A2A will consider giving us some noise-canceling headsets for a future update.
