Pretty much as the title says, but obviously Im gonna elaborate (sorry in advancement for any typos, english is not my native language):
Recently I upgraded to Odissey (well, I bought the expanssion about 2 months ago but it was in such a bad state that I decided topark it and wait for more updates; with update 8 the game seems to run more or less fine allthough it still is a a bit rough around the edges but its mostly playable now for me at least). The thing is that I've obviously been doing a lot of on foot activities but every now and then I go back to space stuff, specially combat. Anyway, I discovered recently that some background music is missing for certain scenarios. Let me explain this further.
While on supercruise and inside stations music works fine, I get the familiar tunes while travelling inside the system to one star body to another and in the station while docking I get the music once I enter the mailbox, and of course the menu themes while navigating through station services; map background music also works whenever I'm plotting a course or just browsing for a possible new destination. BUT there are 2 situations that ussed to have some pretty good soundtracks that are now completelly missing: space combat and exiting supercruise near ANY station. My main activity in ED has allways been space combat, be it on a CZ or regular bountyhunting, rescue, assassinations, massacre etc. Since playing Odissey, I noticed thata every time I enter combat (wheter if it's me starting it or getting interdicted) no music plays at all; well a small correction: if I get interdicted some music plays but when the "pew-pew" starts, no music at all. And its a shame since the combat music for Elite Dangerous was pretty engaging. Same applies when I arrive to a new station. Based on whose super power is owning that particular station I would get a tune that evoked the powerplay faction/character that was in charge; Empire, Alliance, Federation, Independent... they are no more. Also, while doing some SRV activity I noticed the calm tunes that used to play on the trips around with the Scarab while exploring a planet surface ar also gone.
Funny thing I discovered is that if I'm using an APEX shuttle I would get the exit supercruise tunes for factions when we aproached the station, but not with my own ship.
I've checked every option related to music in-game: all volume sliders are at a high level (music is maxed out now at 100% while voices and SFX are roughly 80-90% so I should be able to hear everything with the music being a little on top by now to be able to hear it just in case I had it badly configured). I also checked the menu section that allowes you to activate or deactive a particular kind of soundtrack. Everything is active, nothing is muted.
I've allready submited a ticket to Frontier's Issue tracker, but before that I was only able to find a single mention of this problem on the reddit forums but only 2 responses were added and were really vague; I then myself started a new topic related to this issue but the answer was that it might be a volume slider turned down... which is not the case clearly.
Oddly enough, all combat and exporation music works while I am on foot, but it seems developers forgot to propperly implement prexisting music into the game when you're doing pre-Odissey expansion stuff.
Could somebody please confirm this issue plese? And also provide some kind of workaround or solution, if any?
Thank you very much in advance.
