Hi there, this should help:

Fortnite Ecosystem v34.00 with Known Issues

We’re aware of an issue preventing SoundWaves from playing in UEFN islands if their sample rate isn’t set to: 48khz, 44.1khz 32khz, and 24khz. We are working on a fix and will provide an update once we have more information. In the meantime, resampling your audio to the rates above will allow SoundWaves to play in UEFN islands.

Thanks, good to know! Is there an easy way to change the sample rate in UEFN or on import?

Otherwise I will have to manually bring each file into another software to change the rate and then import it again and I have over 100 audio files.

As of my knowledge, manually bringing each file into another software like Audacity (then pressing “Track” in menu → “Resample”) would be the only solution, and also only possible, if you still have the source audio file stored outside of your UEFN project (not as a .uasset file). Unfortunately, there is no “Export” asset action for sound waves, so I was unable to export them to change their sample rate. Instead of re-sourcing a ton of sounds, I personally chose to delay the release of my current project until the issue is fixed.
