Sound bug.

Getting the same problem, scratchy sounds of NPC dialogues (across all acts) and random scratches here and there. Too bad I've decide to play full lore run, with all NPC dialogues and story, which at the current state is not very enjoyable. Turning off reverb and/or restarting the client is not helping. Never had any problems with sound prior to 3.0...
Can we get any word from GGG that the problem is known and any ETA on when it may be fixed?

ok

Same problem here, running in window mode. Happens during convo's an sounds effects. Ambient sounds and music doesnt seem to be affected (so far).

I get a sporadic audio bug as well. It happens with NPCs. I just had it happen again during one NPC's dialogue. I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I was playing a YouTube video on another monitor when it happened. To be honest I think it happened ONLY when I had another video with audio playing at the same time (Youtube/Twitch). I can remedy it if I leave the game and then come back it.
Hope this helps to figure out what is causing it. By the way, awesome game.

i have the same issues :(

A "me too" post.

Sound glitch seems to happen when I play fullscreen, with max quality sound settings, for extended period of time, and return to Lioneye's Watch and talk to Tarkleigh (lore topics). I don't know if any before mentioned factors have any influence.

Bug happens like this - the Tarkleigh dialogue initiates, and becomes randomly cut, like speech for half a second / silence for 0.2 seconds etc etc with random popping intervals, then it transfers to global game sounds (every sound becomes like this globally) and I basically have to restart the game, which fixes it 100%.

My educated guess would be sound buffer over / underflows, as these have similar sound characteristics.

As I'm doing a lore run, it sucks, but it only happens when I play for more than 2 hours at a time (so far). So there seems to be something in the game that happens rarely that initiates the problem.

Would really like to hear from GGG on fix status, thank you in advance !

i got no sound at all...just in this game :x

I have had this bug twice since the 3.0 update, the second time being just now when starting a Haku daily mission. It's a horrible crackling, popping noise, and I hear it whenever my character moves or someone is talking, so basically all the time.

Restarting the client does seem to fix it.

I've had this issue too. So I played around with the sound settings. I turned the 'number of channels' from high to medium, and since then I have not had the issue. You need to restart the client once you make this change.

(I don't have the options in front of me, so the names I've given them here may not be exact :) )

very annoying it happens every time I restart the game since a week, I thought it was my computer but it isnt, I bought new headset, nothing.

fix this, this is annoying like crazy
