Why is there no sound or distorted sound in Rocket League?

System Sounds

Check that you can hear sound in other applications.

On consoles, close Rocket League and listen for sound in the menus. When you select things you should hear a click (as well as menu music).

On Steam:

  1. Close Rocket League.
  2. Click the speaker icon in the lower right-hand corner.
  3. Click the slider, or move the slider to the right; you should hear a sound.
  4. Make sure the speaker icon is not muted (if muted, it will have an x next to the speaker icon).

Rocket League Audio

If you can hear sound on your device, just not in Rocket League, try changing the sound settings to default:

  1. In Rocket League select Settings.
  2. Select Audio.
  3. Select the Default button at the bottom of the screen.

Other Issues

If you do not hear any sound on your device at all, it may indicate a larger problem with your system. Sometimes the fix can be easy as checking that your audio cables are plugged in properly.

Some things you can try:

  • Check that your headphones or speakers are properly plugged in.
    • If you still hear no sound try testing these on another device like a radio or portable music player.
  • If you hear no sound on your speakers, unplug your headphones.
  • If there is an audio cable connecting headphones or speakers to your device, try swapping out the audio cable or plugging directly into the device.
  • On consoles, try updating your system software:
  • On PC, visit the Microsoft website to update your drivers.
  • Disable background applications
