I have no idea what causes it but I’m 100% sure it is something in GW2 because as soon as I close it, the ridiculous noise stops. It’s only happened twice but both times in WvW.

What happens is:
1. All my game sounds stop
2. All the noise is replaced with a ridiculously obnoxious OOOoooOOOoooOOOoooOOOoooOOOoooOOOoooOOOoooOOOooo..

If anyone knows what causes it or how to stop it without exiting GW2, please let me know

I actually managed to get some proof. Ignore the video part of the video but you should quickly notice the sound…

I don’t know why there’s this massive gap ^, because there is literally no spaces between the video and this line.

After you listen to that video, imagine being forced to listen to that until you close your client completely and losing your spot in WvW.

Another interesting note about it is that the ingame volume controls have no effect on it for some bizarre reason.

Hi everyone.

The development team is fully aware of this error, that has already risen the concerns of other people in the Game Bugs subforum with the same problem. We are working in a solution to fix it.

Thank you for notifying.
I will now proceed to close the thread.
