Hello Ixiten.
Please try the following:

  • Check Windows Audio Output Settings
  • Right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select ‘Sound settings’.
  • Under ‘Output’, make sure your headset is chosen as the default device.
  • Check the Volume Mixer
  • Right-click the speaker icon and choose ‘Open volume mixer’.
  • Ensure DayZ (or Arma) is not muted or set to low volume.
  • Check In-Game Audio Settings, that volume is not set to zero.
  • Try a Different Output Device
  • If possible, test with speakers or another headset to see if the issue is specific to your current headset.
  • Check for Conflicting Audio Software
  • Try a Different USB Port or Audio Jack
  • If using USB, plug into a different port. If using analog audio, try front/rear panel.
  • Delete Game Config Files - try deleting or moving the DayZ and Arma 3 Profiles folders from Documents (For DayZ: Documents\DayZ\)

Regards,
Geez
