No sound in Mulitplayer, sound works in SP fine.....

My conf ini. Reduced Attenuation hoping it would make sound heard from longer distance on external views. Do not remember if it made any difference. Default setting is 7. Everything else is default iirc.

Steam cloud was off for a couple of months. So it is a very old version of conf.ini. I wonder if something is changed in default config since then. If you notice any differences please let me know.

I'm still getting the sound bug. I've tried with 3 different hardware solutions: my onboard sound, a creative usb headset and a sound blaster audigy with up to date drivers (tried 2 types, an official driver and an improved custom driver). My friend who has the problem too experienced it with 2 different sound cards (a sound blaster Xi-Fi Fatal1ty and another high quality one that I have forgotten).

In addition to that, I've followed all the tips listed here, spent a lot of time testing to no success.The only thing I haven't tried is a fresh OS install, but I haven't go much time and I'm only spending it tinkering unsuccessfully, so I have no other choice than giving up. I'll check the forums from time to time hoping something concrete comes up, but this bug just killed the game for me and my friends just as we were starting to enjoy it with some nice MP potential emerging...

Did you try the drivers I am running mentioned in the above posts?

I still experience this issue, has there been any progress on this?

Well, I've tried several different settings, but after tweaking my info box, I was able to get errors reported in the chat box. And as soon as the sound started crapping out I get this error;

1395162 ERROR [SOUND] Sample
$bob/speech/gb/Actor1/Feet.wav not found

It only happens when flying RED team. Which makes sense for me since its a gb (Great Britain) sound file not found. It never happens if I fly blue and stay blue, but once it goes out (by switching to red) it stays out until i restart game, sometimes I have to restart computer.

But I have heard different from others, that it happens on blue team to them...

Yes indeed the drivers I called "custom" were precisely these ones, which I knew from before IL2 COD since they fixed problems associated with Audigy cards with other games (but I had shelved the card and was using the headset as my main sound device anyway, I only took it out again to test the bug).

I might give a go at testing the problem again if I can figure out how to log errors in the chat box as you did Srinidhalaya. I am almost 100% positive that I experienced the problem on the blue side too, but I shall check that too again.
