ABC audio not working
Beginning last week some shows on ABC that I watch via DirectTV have messed up audio.
The Dancing With the Stars episodes on Oct 7&8, 2024 could hear the music and the applause but not the people talking.
Tonight’s episode of The Golden Bachelorette is the same…background music but no voices. It’s not my tv because I’ve checked it on all 5 tvs in my house. Any suggestions??

Hi, @sbsmutoni0965. We apologize for the audio problem on the ABC channel. There is a known outage on the ABC channel throughout the states. To determine if your location is impacted, could you please share your state and ZIP code? Jona, DIRECTV Community Specialist

I'm in the 32312 area code. But it does not seem to be an outage....many other programs' audio is fine...it's just some shows where SOME of the audio is impacted (people talking can't be heard, but background/music/etc. CAN be heard.....very strange!).

Hello, @sbsmutoni0965. Broadcasters send audio and should be sending programming with the same audio levels for the commercials and programs. We'll send you a DM to investigate further and get this escalated for review. Kharl, DIRECTV Community Specialist

I'd call your local ABC. My ABC is fine and I watch those same shows

The area above seems to be in Tallahassee, Florida, so I'm sure it's either weather-related or solar flares - is that the right zip code?

Yes, it's Tallahassee....no weather here. I don't understand the comment about solar flares.

I’m not a direct tv customer and it’s happened to me also. It started on October 12 with football games (watching them live) and continued with Dancing with the Stars and High Potential (recorded). It is not currently doing it live. Something was wrong. I am in Georgia but in the Tallahassee, FL market. There was no bad weather during this time.

This is almost certainly a problem with the audio set up at your local station.
