ME Andromeda Audio issue

Flowey · June 19, 2017

Oy folks, good day to y'all,

I come with a non game breaking issue, but definitely immersion shattering type of issue, like after 20 hours I can't play anymore. So basically what's going on is, I've got this lovely pair of Sennheiser 280 Pro headphones, works fine in every game, no issues whatsoever. Now, within ME Andromeda there is this popping sound, actually it sounds like static, that happens pretty often, be it music of gameplay causing it, I have no clue. I've tried the good ol' reset, unplugging/plugging the headphones a few times. Went ahead and uninstalled realtek sound drivers, rebooted and played the game on basic audio drivers, still had the issue. So now I'm wondering if it isn't coming from the game itself, and now I have no clue if there is any way to solve the problem.

TLDR : Tiny static/popping sound while playing ME Andromeda, tried a few things, still having issue.

Thx!

Try fiddling with the samplingrate/bit depth. Sometimes a mismatch can cause this. Set it to 44.1/16 or 48/16. Should be in your standard windows sound settings.
