Samsung TV no sound after third Oculus Setup

[maximilian_benke]

Hello,

I have the following Problem:

Yesterday I got an Oculus Rift as a present. I installed it with no problem. Since my PC has only one HDMI slot, I had to use an Displayport to HDMI Adapter for my Samsung TV I use as a Monitor. Usually it is connected through the HDMI Slot.

Now I had to redo the Oculus Setup 3 times because of Sensor Tracking Problems. The first two times were okay, I could hear sound from both Oculus when I wear it and TV.

But on the third time today, while it installed my TV flickered a few times, and since then I don't get any sound from my TV anymore, while the Oculus still works. The Oculus headphones even make sounds from the PC which they didn't before. My TV also isn't displayed under "Manage Audio Devices" anymore ("show disabled/disconnected devices" is turned on). It doesn't matter if I plug the TV into the HDMI or the Displayport Adapter. Redoing the Oculus Setup also didn't work.

If someone could help me, that would be great! Thank you in advance!

Probably need to reinstall the gpu driver to get the audio to tv back (audio over displayport is the gpu's audio driver).

As far as sensors going nuts, are they both plugged into the same USB controller? This can cause problems. I added an Inatech 5-port usb pci-e card, plugged one sensor and the headset into it and the other sensor into the Intel chipset's usb and things are much better.

Could you tell me how I reinstall it? Will it cause any instability or change on already installed software?

And about the sensor, as of now they seem to work, though it took a while before the problem began yesterday. It stuttered around every 20 seconds and the hands got stuck. I could still rotate them, even "shoot" and click with them, they simply got stuck at the position they were when it began. Often I also got "teleported" in the program while it happened. Could you tell me how I check if they are plugged into the same USB Controller?

Just download the latest driver for your gpu, chiose custom when it comes up, and select clean install.

Consult your motherboards manual for which usb ports are paired togethet. You can also try putting one of the sensors on usb 2 instead of 3.

Sadly it didn't help. Did a clean install. Same as before.

I actually already did and do use USB 2.0 for one Sensor, since my PC only has 2 USB 3.0 Ports. One I use for the Oculus, the other for one of the sensors.

Not sure where to go next on the audio. Hopefully some else here can help.
