What happens is that whenever there is audio or any type of sound on my computer such as playing a video on youtube, windows startup sounds etc. ANY sound. There is constant popping or crackling sounds and stops whenever the sound is gone, so whenever I'd play a video, a game, that'd mean it wouldn't stop until I'd close the application...
So recently this issue has occurred and I have tried many ways to fix this:
- reinstalling drivers of headset
- reinstalling audio drives
- disabled audio enhancements
- dusting out my pc (getting desperate)
I have also attached an audio file.
The initial sound of is the test sound from headphone properties under '1 channel, 16 bit, 48000Hz (DVD quality), sounds normal however its 1 channel and audio only comes out from the left but there is no issue..(don't want that type of channel)
In the last few sounds, I changed over to the default channel which is the one I always used and had no problems with: --> 2 channel, 16 bit, 48000Hz (DVD quality). Which is where you can hear the popping and crackling of course.
If there is some kind of solution it would be great!
Don't think its the headphones because It also happened to my wired headphones, using wireless, changing it over again and didn't make a difference.
