Ground weapon sounds suddenly not working

Here's what happened:
I started doing the daily endeavors. I had shield healing ground, destroy undine ships in dyson battlezone and defeat tholians ground. The defeat tholians indicated I needed to kill 80 tholians, which seemed off. I've done this one hundreds of times and the most kills required were 60. I thought maybe cryptic changed the number of kills required in the latest patch.

So I proceeded to nukara and started killing tholians and noticed right away my weapons didn't make any sound and number of tholians killed was staying at 0, yet the undine ship kills were advancing instead. Very strange and never happened before. To clarify, I was registering undine ship kills (for the endeavor) by killing tholians on nukara.

So I checked the sound options in the ui (everything looked okay), then I logged out, restarted my pc, did a force verify in the launcher and relogged into the game. This time, the count for tholian kills needed for the endeavor reverted to 60 instead of 80. Went to nukara and killed 60 tholians (got credit for the endeavor - still no ground weapon sounds) and then went to nimbus to test ground weapons. No sounds from *any* ground weapons on nimbus either.

As far as I can tell, all other sounds seem to be working properly. Anybody else got this issue? Ideas?

    Update:

    Turns out I must have inadvertently changed a setting on the audio controls for my speakers. The decoder got set to 3D instead of off.

    That solves the missing ground weapon sounds issue but not the weird endeavor glitch. Glitches happen.
