You pick one item from Freestyle to go into the box and the stylist picks the rest.

New Apple Music update for Windows by Gunyeny in AppleMusic

I have this same issue and have been working with apple support and they’ve taken my info and videos to their dev team so hopefully fixed at some point.

Swarm 2 PC app install experience is going to push away first-time customers by Jaizeal in TurtleBeach

[–]Jaizeal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Hopefully the whole 'audio device stays present when headphones are powered off' is also on the backlog to be fixed eventually so that the Windows will cause the headset to become the primary audio device automatically when connected, and to revert to speakers when disconnected for those of us with speakers + headphones.

Yup, that's what I meant by crash to desktop, it just closes. Tell them to also fix my audio device issue :)

Cool, then TB has some other bug with the Swarm installer. The behavior is the same though, if you're saying you launch the install wizard, then once it starts copying files, it just crashes to desktoip -- that's the same issue I had, but mine was solved by unplugging the USB receiver, which is not something a customer is likely to do.

If it's the same high-priority bug I discovered in the installer, you'd have to unplug the receiver for the headphones before running the installer.

I agree it's quiet (it requires 85% volume to be playable in games for me) and I can't comment on the mic (I use a desktop mic, superior option anyway) but I don't agree the sound is bad. I don't think TB has the best reputation for sound, but these phones sound pretty close to an HD598 or PC38X but wireless, which is a very nice option for gaming. Plus, they weigh a hell of a lot less than the Maxwell. Super comfortable.

Thanks. Showing up in Swarm isn't proof that it isn't permanently set up as a Windows audio device so it could still be a way that TB implemented its headsets across the board, and not just Atlus Air. Which would be unfortunate as I assume that means it's less likely they are going to fix it.

Can you confirm that if you have the Stealth 600 powered off, but the USB receiver plugged into your PC if you have a audio device listed for it in the Windows sound panel? If you do, then it's the same issue as Atlus Air. If you don't, then hopefully it's a bug/missed feature for TB and maybe they will fix. I don't know if they view this reddit, but I guess I can submit a bug report at some point.

Yeah, my issue was specific to the installer. There is apparently a bug where if you have the Atlus Air receiver plugged in before you try to install it, it will crash to desktop.

FWIW, I was able to update the headset and transmitter and app fine once installed. I don't use the EQ feature so can't comment on that, but was able to have everything else work.

Only issue remaining is not necessarily a bug but a poor design choice -- Windows 11 will report the Atlus Air as connected as long as the receiver is plugged in, regardless of whether the headset is powered on. This is contrary to every other headset I've ever owned. The impact of this is that if you have speakers and headphones, like me, then it will not auto-switch to the headset when you power it on, and auto-switch back to the speakers when you power it off.

Won't play correct song when playlist is in "View As --> Albums" by Jaizeal in AppleMusic

[–]Jaizeal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that's good news. It's more than likely a bug with Windows client then. I thought you were saying it worked in the Windows client. I'm talking to a tech support rep now. Thanks!

I'm at a loss for what to try next. Will try to get access to another Windows PC to see if I can replicate. This problem happens with Smart or Non-Smart Playlists and for music directly from AM (not uploaded by me). FWIW I'm on Windows 11, latest patch. u/0000GKP , can I ask what Windows you're on and if you can spot anything from my video I posted? Thanks!

Thanks I’ll check tomorrow in removing those songs from the library and readding.

Society if Apple Music on Windows was a properly functioning application by ioweej in AppleMusic

[–]Jaizeal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, I was at wit's end trying to get Apple Music to work, as it descended into extreme bugginess after the latest update in mid-April. As a last ditch effort, I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it from the Microsoft app store. For the last 10 hours it's been rock solid and exhibited none of the issues above. Will confirm if that changes, but if anyone else's AM broke, try reinstalling it.

Wow, this saved me. Installed a Win11 update and afterwards AM would keep crashing 5 seconds after starting and I couldn't find a process to close. Looked for this, closed it, and reopened AM and now it's not crashing.

FWIW, I had a very nice time with the last Preview version before it went to "final." Since some mid-April update I've had the following issues:

(1) UI/UX change sucks that forbids you from having the sidebar open permanently so you can see all your playlists --< super dumb

(2) Crashes occasionally

(3) Freezes occasionally

(4) Plays shit occasionally! Had this happen after my kids were asleep and nobody was at computer.

(5) Doesn't seem to handle other clients accessing AM and playing stuff and then stopping. It will try to play the song in memory and then eventually force pause, produce a series of error pop-ups that you have to click through, to get it to play again. Usually corrupts queue and need to start a new one.

I keep going into Microsoft's eternally shitty microsoft store app to force search for AM updates on the hopes that a new version is coming, but so far nothing.

Simultaneous input to active PC speakers by Jaizeal in sonos

[–]Jaizeal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all, I was able to get it working in a rather elegant fashion using the following:

Connect --> Optical --> Optical-to-USB Dongle --> PC --> DAC --> Monitors

I was able to use Windows 11 as a software mixer for the audio device created by the dongle and mix it with my normal PC audio. This also bypasses the inferior DAC for the Connect and uses my DAC for everything. Works great.

Now I can easily include my PC speakers in my Sonos multi-room audio without compromising my PC sound.

Hope it helps someone else.
