Behaviour:
  • Playing youtube - audio is fine
  • Playing Netflix - audio is fine
  • Playing crunchyroll - audio is basically Compressed Robotic Static (gonna abbreviate this to CRS)
  • Playing spotify - CRS, intermittently
  • playing youtube/Netflix while crunchyroll/spotify is open but paused - CRS
  • Audio on other devices - laptop, PS4, Nintendo switch - audio is fine.


What I've tried:
  • Downloaded and reinstalled audio drivers and restarted
  • Changed audio sample rate (mostly just made it worse)
  • Turned on/off audio enhancements
  • Changed default audio devices
  • Turned on/off exclusive mode


What my setup is:
  • speakers plugged into monitor with 3.5mil jack.
  • Monitor plugged into KVM switch.
  • KVM switch plugged into PC.


I want to guess it's some weird combo of the specific hardware I've got going on here, but it's hard to say when it literally only happens with certain apps.
