X:R Causes Sound Card to overheat (?) and sound-loss issues o.O (2.5)

Sound randomly cuts off and not only just my game. I have to restart the audio service (AudioSrv) on my Win 7 x64 OS and restart X Rebirth to get sounds back. I'm using a Realtek/ROG based driver too.

My sound also goes shortly after entering a local highway. But only ingame. Windows sounds and everything else works well, so a game restart helps. It's really annoying.

As has been said before, we are aware of the highway-related sound issue and are investigating. There's no need for people to keep reporting it.

1. Sounds and music completely stops while flying in highways and flying in and out them... It seems that Soundcard stops responding. But you can enter menu and sound will be back... Then back to game but no sound will be back... Sound resumes itself just after some time playing game... Better in regions where are no action and have less sound effects - then it restores faster!

2. Flying out from blue highways location sometimes is not the highway exit but somewhere in the zone near highway exit...

I started game vanilla at 2.50 version.

My RIG settings are:
Sound: Audigy 2 ZS - set to 24 bit 48000 Hz
VGA: GTX560 Ti MSI OC
CPU: Core i5 2400 3.4 Ghz
RAM: Corsair DDR3 8 GB 1666

Game settings 1920x1080px ULTRA - except : AA 2x, SSAO normal, distortion off.
FPS 30+

So, will this be fixed in v3.0 when it is released this month?

It is really annoying to have to exit and restart the game two or three times every hour!

I do not have to do this all the time (1 or 2 times out of 3 sessions), but when I have to it is annoying!

It sounds like your case might be something different, so perhaps it's worth starting a new thread for it with your [url=http://www.egosoft.com/support/faq/faq_answer_en.php?answer=610&version=8][b]DX[/b][b]D[/b]iag[/url] report and so on, and trying to narrow down when it happens for you.
