New anticheat broke all 3rd party app support?
Check this reddit thread for more info. Basically no popular recording, overlay, color management or other statistic measuring apps work in 2042 anymore. Please forward this to the team.

Hello everyone,
My PC
Win 10 Pro
i7 13700K
RAM 32GB
RTX 3080Ti
Z690 msi tomahawk
Windows in installed on SSD
Battlefield is installed on NVME m.2 SSD
I noticed these issues start happening after update 6.0, I'm playing on daily basis and record daily, my PC is fairly optimized , all power saving options are disabled I'm using wired ethernet connection, my GPU driver is updated, my audio driver is updated and my windows is up to date also. in game network indicators show no problems at the time the stuttering in game and crackling in audio happen so I don't think it's related to my internet.
Here are comparisons using LatencyMon software between idle, Cyberpunk and BF2042
IDLE :
Cyberpunk:
Battlefield 2042 :
Something in Battlefield is causing these spikes and I suspect it's because the new kernel level EA anti-cheat , it's very annoying issue and I wonder if anyone have these problems or know a workaround , any help from the support is appreciated.
Thank you for this, it's nice to see something that shows proof. There are a couple other threads here about people with audio issues, and it's all people who own Focusrite audio interfaces. Do you have one of these too by chance? We also suspect something in EA's Anti Cheat is interfering, possibly with the Focusrite drivers themselves, I don't know enough to be able to tell, but hopefully EA gets onto this and quick.

No I don't, just the motherboard built-in Realtek® ALC4080 Codec and stereo headphone Philips SHP9500.

@Raptor_i81This needs to be its own thread. This issue is absolutely horrible. And no, I don't have the audio hardware other people have, I just use my speakers connected to my motherboard.
@SP0000kS is right. If you use your Focusrite for recording or the same I would not recommend it either. But if you just have your headphones on the Focusrite, I don't see a problem with that.
If i have to put 192 samples to 1024 on a professional soundcard to not have pop/crack/sound then totally crash the driver.
Assuming if i use different focusrite driver that make different sound problem but still at 192 buffer size.
As windows dont use buffersize in the same way there will be probably problem with other audio configuration.
If you have an interface its probably to plug instrument or XLR pro microphone and of course you try to lower the buffersize as much as possible as your cpu can handle it. So you need the manufacturer driver.
Since 3 days i play at 1024/48khz with the last focusrite driver even with discord and not pop/crack problem.
If an audio developper could read the thread it will probably take 10min for him to understand that it come from BF2042.
