Missing audio is usually a codec problem. I had the same issue with AVCHD files. Recording in MP4 format will usually fix these issues.
For existing files you can try converting your MXF files to MP4 files for editing with one of the many utilities available. I often use VLC Media Player for this but I haven't used it for 4k conversions I must admit.

Thanks for the reply
yes i thought it may be
I bought the camera to film in 4k though you see ive tried conveting the files in videoproc but still no audio

I just tried a test record in 4k MXF on my Mac and it played fine in VLC media player.
I was also able to convert it to MP4 format keeping the original video stream but converting the audio to AAC.

yes ive heard someone else mention no issue on mac im using windows 10 ive been sat all day trying to sort out the issue i have to edit some footage as ive just bought the camera but no luck
i get no audio if i open a 4k file in vlc player also its odd but using the canon xf utility all is fine very frustrating

I fired up my Windows 10 PC tried loading the file into DaVinci Resolve (free version) and the audio played ok. So it looks like Resolve has the right codecs.
There is a bit of a learning curve to get productive in Resolve so it may not be the ideal editing solution for you.
