Hi there. I've recently downloaded some games from itch.io, and among some of them I have noticed that all in-game audio does not seem to play, even though it exists. To no avail, I have relaunched the games, restarted my computer, reinstalled the games, attempted to adjust the in-game volume settings (which were apparently already unmuted and at maximum settings), and have run a variety of audio troubleshooters. My computer is also fully up to date.
All other audio functions for my computer; it is only these games that do not play any sound through any output device. They also use the Ren'py engine (which I suspect is part of the problem, as another game with a different engine I've downloaded from here successfully plays sound).
If anyone has any ideas or solutions, please let me know.
