I’m struggling with persistent audio crackling, when running Steam and/or Moonlight. The audio is fine otherwise, albeit a bit flat compared to MacOS. The crackling is present both through the headphone jack and through the speakers, with audible cracks and pops continually, not a second goes by without one. However with Steam or Moonlight not running, the audio is perfect, no cracks no pops.
Additionally the crackling is present after a reboot, and at all volume levels.
