Wwise Access Violation crashes UE4 when levels or Blueprints with Wwise references are opened

0 votes
UE: 4.25

Wwise: 2021.1.2.7629.2025

Hi, my team are having some trouble with our UE4 project. Recently, the programmer observed that UE4 will immediately crash due to an access violation whenever any Blueprint or level with Wwise nodes/references is opened. I think it happened around the time I changed over to EBP. I'm the only one with Wwise installed and the only one who can open the project without crashing. I've confirmed that Wwise is properly integrated and the plugin is enabled on everyones computers. I'm not sure if this is important but we're using Perforce and have the plugin install and Wwise project in the depot.

Callstack:

Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x00000040

It also appears that it fails to load Wwise data (when generating sound data):

Does anyone have any suggestions?
