No sound in Live Chess

No, that's not always the reason. I have had only one tab open had sound for my non-tnmt games, but then lost sound as soon as a tnmt or live match began.

 

I will try the /sound trick next time this happens, but playing blitz and being forced to type during the game is extremely onerous.

 

It would be better if the site simply fixed this ubiquitous glitch.

There is always a reason even if there is no reason thats their reason it makes prefect sense to them.

Have a read of this.

You have turned off sound in the games

If I refresh the page it comes back.

I often have no sound, or it stops and starts during a game.  It's very annoying and has certainly made me lose several bullet games through losing time because I didn't realise my opponent had moved.

Bullet also seems to lose moves sometimes, i.e. it thinks that I've moved sometimes when I've made some kind of mouse click but haven't actually moved, and that's also caused me to lose games several times. It's far from bullet-proof.

Similar troubles, lost many 1 min games already because of this

I played two games today and I have the same problem. No piece sound. Attempted all the solutions in this thread and none worked.

My sound suddenly stopped working for all chess too, for 'Default' sound.  All the silly custom sounds work fine, but I just want 'Default' like I've always had.  It sounds silly, but it's really hard to focus with no sound or a different sound when you are so used to playing chess or doing puzzles with the same piece sound for so long.

sound working for my opponent's moves, but not mine. check, checkmate, etc. sounds also not working. annoyed, and throwing my game off a bit

Mine is back now after I cleared my cache, but it's annoying to be signed out of everything just to fix that!

It seems working when clearing your cache (using chrome). Try it out
