Thanks for the report, this is now fixed for the next release, 2.1.13.
I apologize for taking it that long, I've missed the report.

For the next release, 2.1.13, the radar has open/close GUI sounds defined.
Also, we decided to add a default open/close GUI sound for entities that don't have them defined.

In 2.1.13 the ghost entity open/close GUI sounds have been replaced with new ones. They are supposed to be similar to the old ones but softer. Let us know how do they sound to you once it's released.

Thanks for the report.
Since those sounds are optional, this is not a bug by definition. However I did forward this to the sound designer.

Thanks for the report. However I don't consider this a bug. The sounds are still synchronized in the sense that they start when they supposed to.
The fact that suddenly rocket silo animations can be faster so the sounds are too long is a Minor issue/Won't fix category.
So I don't believe we will be ...

Thanks for the report. This is now fixed for the next release, 2.1.12.

Thanks for the report. This is now fixed for the next release, 2.1.12.

It turned out this was a silly mistake on my part (also wind sounds were affected). This is now fixed for the next release, 2.1.12.
Thanks again for the report, good catch.

This is almost certainly a driver/system issue and there is nothing Factorio can do (other than choosing a driver). The driver selection is (as far as I know) a simple priority list and first one that will successfully initializes will be used. And from previous reports we've received in the past ...

Hello,
as was correctly guessed, when initializing audio we ask SDL for the default playback device. So it will come down to SDL driver calls and what it gets from the system.

You can try changing the preferred driver in Sound settings to pipewire (requires Factorio restart) to see if it behaves ...

Thank you for the detailed report.
I'm currently on vacation so I will investigate this as a first thing when I return.

I have forwarded this to our sound designer for consideration.

I have added the new console_* sounds to programmable speaker under the Miscellaneous instrument for the next release, 2.1.10.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Global playback mode has been renamed to Universe, to match the naming of radar GUI, for the next release, 2.1.10.

The intro sound and the rest of the music are very much separate.
The intro sound is loaded and played before other sounds and before the music player is created.
And yes, ideally the intro sound and main menu music would transition nicely and it is possible to do, but it is such a minor thing I've ...

Music (AmbientSound) is not affected by the zoom level based low pass filter.
If you think your music is affected, create a bug report including a short clip showing the issue, your config file and log file.

Thanks for the report.
This is very much intended. Ghost entities play a special ghost sounds for opening their GUI, also closing, building the ghost, etc.

Thanks for the report.
The log doesn't show any errors regarding audio, so there is nothing to do on Factorio side.
My guess is that some specific combination of things in your setup doesn't play along with the pipewire SDL driver.
As long as the pulseaudio driver option works without issues I ...

Thanks for the report. I've changed the mining sound for huge rock and several other types of rocks to use the new sound. Fixed for the next release, 2.1.8.

Hello, thanks for the report.
I have checked with our sound designer, the sound sounds as intended.
