title says it all, checked the volume levels, happened after a crash out of the game. sound works fine in everything else.

The config.ini file can get corrupted after a crash. I suggest making a backup of your current config.ini and then remove it from its usual location so that a new one with all the default settings will be generated. That will at least tell you if the problem is due to your config settings (including possibly corrupted data) or something else.

seems to have fixed itself. i did nothing to fix it.

Depending on your OS, there may be some sound log files that get created that could explain the problem. If you lose sound again, please open a support ticket with all of your log files located in the Vendetta directory.

For example, windows generates a waverror.log file.

will do
