Problem after changing volume with options on a built game.

dasjlm

I'm using 1.62.6 of Adventure Creator and 2018 version of Unity.  I noticed I can use options to change sound during game in the editor and I do not lose sound but if I do that in a built game I lose all sound after I make a change to anyone of the Options sound sliders. It's odd that works in the editor but not a built game.  I suspect it's something simple I'm not doing.  Any pointers are appreciated?

Which version of Unity exactly?

What sound type specifically are you changing the volume of?  I shall attempt a recreation.

Just tried on a brand new project and works ok so I will have to troubleshoot on my original project.  I have several add on's so might be issue.  Anyway I'll work through it. Thanks John

FYI: Getting closer.  Seems I if change the music volume the speech stops in the built game. I'm using Dialogue System so suspect it's linked to that. Anyway got something to go on.

Ok might need some help again. According to Dialogue System they do not change volumes. They just invoke Salsa which relies on the volume settings on the audio source.  I did go through and made sure chars have a sound object child (sfx mixer) and each char has a sound object (speech).  When I play the game I can see the mixers are active at right time, but when I use the AC options menu and change sliders the mixer volumes doe not change even though the AC numbers in the settings change.  Any ideas?  Thanks John

Got that fixed but still having the original one.  Knew I must have done something stupid.  Forgot to check the parm names matched the ones in the mixer I used.
So when I build the game and change one of the volume sliders salsa doesn't work in the Dialogue System anymore.  Suspect Salsa gets error.
In the built game I can change the volume of music and hear difference but the salsa seems to stop.  Hopefully something silly but elusive so far. Will see if I can find a way to get out error during game.

It looks like salsa stops working for some reason as the dialogue for all characters displays subtitles, but the speech and lipsync does not occur after a volume change in a built game.  Anyone will continue to track down.

GOOD NEWS.

I created a script to update the mixer volumes and my problem is gone.

Not sure why changing via options menu causes problem.

Anyway I good to go with this solution.
