FMOD Failed to load bank FMOD/Desktop/temp.bank with error code 18

I have attempted to start POE with --ns, and --softwareaudio. I also went through pack check without any problems.

Same problem here. Tried --ns, --softwareaudio, restarting Windows Audio service and redownloading fmod.dll

Thanks for the reply! Send it, although it looks exactly like the one in the OP.
Getting same issue I have win 7 and I have MSI 287 GD65 gaming Mobo built in sound card. I gave both steam and standalone.

I have tried every variation of -ns --nosound -swa --softwareaudio I have installed all new drivers after uninstalling all drivers. I run in and out of admin mode as well I run in compatibility mode.

Nothing is working very frustrated

The least you can do is actually READ the thread. Send an email to GGG.
"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning."

"Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!"
facing similar issue. have already sent email to ggg.

anyone heard anything back yet?
I have sent an email, I have had this issue for over 1 year I cannot play the game, I get no replies to any support about this issue and no one has a fix that works. I was really hoping the Expac would have brought a fix to this issue.

[Removed by Support] You have no idea if I sent an email to support or not.
Forums are also a place to post bugs so people with similar bugs can compare notes, to help resolve said issues.
