No audio on Quest 2 via link cable

Here are also two other tricks I sometimes have to do to get my sound functioning properly both in the Oculus PC app and Virtual desktop. Load everything up and connect via the Oculus app, once connected click the desktop button and once viewing your desktop open File Explorer and if you kept the default installation for the application go to C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-diagnostics and right click on Fixer.exe and run as administrator ( I personally have this set in compatibility mode to always run as admin so no need to right click every time if you need to know how to do this here is a link:  ) This will now close and disconnect the headset and reload the Oculus application, reconnect and your audio should now be working fine. Oddly enough this does fix my audio 99% of the time. If that doesn't work I then double check the currently selected default audio device in the sound settings in the control panel and task bar.

For virtual desktop I sometimes have issues there too. I have found the strangest workaround there is to load the game or app I want to play and once it it is up I hit the Meta button twice on the controller, this drops me to my desktop, click twice again and now back in game with sound working. I have to do this most the time when I use headphones. 

Also note that sometimes I have to double click the meta button too in the oculus app to get the sound working on my headphone also.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
