No Sounds in UE4.17 w/ 1.9.8, Seems to be a Listener Issue, HELP PLEASE

Hi,

When I build new banks with 1.9.8 I get no sounds in UE4.17
If I revert back to my old banks from 1.9.6 they all load and play with no problem.

Does anyone know if there’s an issue with 1.9.8 and UE4.17?

It appears that all of my banks build just fine… See

Does anyone know why it keep hanging on the listeners and not letting anything pass through?

Does anyone know if upgrading to FMOD 1.10 would help fix this issue?

EDIT: After some more testing, I was able to link it directly to an issue with only the Master Bank file… I can update other banks no problem, but as soon as I generate a new master bank with 1.9.8 I get the listener issue.

Try to use the newest version of FMOD Studio and the UE4 Plugin. Works fine in 4.17 for me.

This turned out to be caused by building banks while live syncing to Studio, I have raised this in our tracker and will investigate it further.
