Overwatch Audio Issues

I just recently got a Razer Kraken 7.1 Chroma (V1) from a friend, and I have been noticing a ton of issues with the audio in Overwatch. The music on the menu screen especially sounds distorted and crackly, and I can't seem to find a solution anywhere. I have tried reinstalling the Realtek audio drivers and the Razer drivers, and neither have made a difference. I would like to be able to play without this issue, so please help!

PC Specs:

AMD Ryzen 5 2600X, Scythe Fuma 2, EVGA GTX 1070 FTW, 2x16GB G.Skill TridentZ Neo DDR4-3600, WD Black 500GB NVME SSD, 2TB WD Green HDD, ASUS ROG STRIX X570-I GAMING, SilverStone SX700-G, Cooler Master NR200P

Check near the plugs (both sides) for any damage but does this only happen in OW?

The headset and cord are both in great condition, so I doubt it's caused by physical damage. And yes, it only happens in Overwatch. I have tried every other program I own, including Hearthstone, which is another Blizzard game and that had no issues.
