Am I the only one who gets constant Audio stuttering?

[OnePercent]

All the time, Every where, My audio keeps stuttering and has been since Gamma 2.0, I'd like to know if anyone else gets this issue too, Since for me this issue is only present with Elite.

It sounds like audio hiccuping, Slight pauses, Then mute almost like someone is literally messing with the audio jack. (yes I have checked it, It only happens to E: D anyway)

No other game, movie, multimedia has this problem.

Further, It happens with both front and back jacks, Both Stereo speakers and Phone ear plugs and Over ear head phones, All the same.

It's especially worse around and in stations when docked, To the point of insanity.

+1 - I don't remember having the problems in the beta, not sure but I think the last version I played was 2.02. If I hit boost upon undocking I get a large chunk of a second of silence pretty reliably (followed by a lot of crackling as things come back to life).

Exactly this !!!

It's crackling just as you described, But for me it is very often and most audible in and around stations.

I'm also noticing some audio stuttering when I'm below 55fps, this is kinda annoying

I get it too and it's really jarring. It's hard to get fully immersed in this game when there is constant audio and visual stutter. Ruins a lot of the experience for me unfortunately.

I haven't had a constant audio-stutter. But I do have a significant audio stutter if I'm using Multicannons.

Initial fire sound works fine, but once I start registering hits (that little bleep every time a shot hits a target) the stutter begins as the bleep sound chokes out the guns and the sound breaks down fast. Normal sound is restored once I stop attacking, but it's exceptionally grating.

Not getting it here, although I normally have ED's music off and WinAMP on....

Do you use an nvidia or a amd gpu?

I will get a stutter when disengaging from SC into a station, or sometimes a 'machine gun' effect when engaging the FSD into another system.

I get audio anomalies when going out of the fullscreen game mode, and back in again. Some crackling, and some stuttering. Same when trying to run it in a window. Fullscreen works fine otherwise, just no surfing the forums I guess. Realtek HD Audio, I have tried everything to make it go away, short of buying a new computer.

I had been fighting this as well. I found it's windowed mode that caused the popping and crackling. I went to full screen and it all went away.

I too get it. Beta was mostly stutter free (from an audio perspective) and it became more prominent in gamma and now with release, unfortunately.

 

[Biggus]

I get it when I first jump into a system, and when I jump into a station area.

 

[CMDR Carbo]

Have it too. Found out it's much worse for me in open mode than in solo mode. Might be network related.

Often when waiting in the hangar sound cuts out and repeats.

I'm playing in full-screen mode.

Not constant my end, but I have noticed sound issues in the past. Almost seems more of a ticking than a stutter to my ears. Times like when you go to SC etc seem to be most noticable, even though the game seems to be handling it fine (fairly decent system specs).

I am running OB sound via Realtek chip (ASUS Maximus VI board).

I have also noticed it on my headphones, which run via a USB sound.

I think I have started to get used to it now lol

 

[HazardJake]

I get audio stuttering almost every time I enter an atmospheric station, or when im close to other ships, its getting annoying >.<
I have filed a ticket for it too.

 

[Green Fog]

I get it too, constantly. Sounds kind of like the popping on a vinyl record.

 

[Max Steele]

None of you that say you have the problem have said whether or not you're running the game with the full screen option or the windowed option. Are you running the game full screen or windowed / bordless window?

If you're running the game windowed / borderless window, switch the setting back to full screen and see if you are still getting the audio issues.

Exactly the opposite here. I get it leaving stations. And occasionally with Multi-Cannons.

EDIT: Running full screen here.
