This may be longer than necessary but I wanted to include anything that I can think of that might be related to the problem.

I got dolphin a few days ago and it was working fine. I had a minor issue that were related to the graphics backend but those went away after changing to direct3D11. The day before yesterday I ripped skyward sword and wanted to play it in higher resolution than on wii. At the time I was using the 5.0 release and after finding out it doesnt support motion plus emulation I downloaded version 5.0-11430. It was a bit of a pain getting everything to work. Eventually I got DS4 as recommended somewhere to give dolphin the gyro and accelerometer data of my PS4 controller that I am using to control the emulated wii remote, motion plus, and nunchuck. When I finally got everything working and was able to get passed the calibration section of the game I realized I had no sound anymore. I then launched new super mario bros wii and it had no sound either. I tried using both audio backends and neither worked. Dolphin does show up in volume mixer but it doesnt ever say it is attempting to play any audio. Around this time dolphin started having issues doing almost anything. Whenever I clicked on a dropdown it wouldnt always open and if I tried changing audio settings or turned on the DSU client setting as well as a few other things. I figured that I changed a lot in a short space of time so I had no idea what the issue could be. I thought it was either a bug in that version or a setting I changed so I got 5.0-11432, I deleted the entire dolphin save folder in C:/Users/Username/Documents, and I rebooted my computer no make sure no background processes were running. I didnt want to change anything that wasnt necessary so I didnt turn DS4 on and the only setting I changed was to map my controller buttons. After that I launched new super mario bros wii to check if I had audio. I did not. The other issues werent happening anymore but after a few minutes they started again. Now if I reboot my computer the other bugs dont happen for a while so I can play either of the two games I mentioned but the sound never works.

You say Dolphin doesn't have audio output in the mixer, but can other programs still send out sound properly?
The DS4 can show up as an audio device. Did you verify that Windows doesn't have it set as the output for your audio?
Is Windows up to date?

Other programs have no issues outputting audio, Dolphin shows up in the same device menu that everything else is outputting to (the correct device as it is the only one with something plugged into it) and none of the other devices but doesnt show the green bar that appears when an application is attempting to play audio. My controller does not show up as an audio device unless I have my headset plugged into the port on it, and if it is plugged in there is still no audio. I am running windows 10 and it is fully up to date.

Oddly enough I found out that I have sound again if I use the Cubeb audio backend, but only if I use the LLE recompiler and enable the Dolby Pro Logic II Decoder. The other minor issues also seem to be caused by the audio settings somehow? I dont entirely know but after no changes to dolphin or my audio setup other than just checking that box there is now sound and the other minor issues were fixed.

i had no audio.  when i changed the settings to be similar to what you had, i had audio.  Thanx for making the thread !  TheReaper.  I actually had blank selected for backend when i checked.  I don't know how or why this was this way.  I checked backend first thing and i remember the drop down not having any options.  but now they are there.  So the options i selected were as follows:  


-DSP LLE recompiler
-Dolby Pro Logic II decoder
-OpenAL backend
-Latency 2

thanks again for posting!  Smile
