Background audio cutting out while playing games.

Heyyup everyone! 

 

Dropping in here, hopeful for some help for an issue that has plagued me for awhile with my PC. 

(DXDiag attached for PC information)

 

It seems that lately, whenever I play games on my PC, my background audio will cut out randomly or stutter randomly. It happens on Discord or when listening to music or podcasts on my PC. My game audio never stutters, or my main 'focus' audio never stutters, but it happens with background audio more often than not. I've used both the internal sound card, and a PCI-E sound card, and the issue persists. 

 

I'm wondering if its an issue with my RAM or motherboard, as we have exhausted all options for drivers for both the internal sound card and the PCIE soundblaster card. 

 

Any help is much appreciated as I'm at the end of my rope. 

 

Thank you all, 

FreeBird
