Hi,
Yes it's a known issue (for us who experience it)...
I have PS5 Base with Steelseries Nova 5P and also use RIG analogue headset with jack plug. I get same distorted sound on both under heavy action on large battles. Have tried a lot of different audio options such as changing between 3D audio, Stereo, Headset, etc and also the different mix types. Also tried lowering master channel and also all channels down to 80%. And run 80-90% output on PS5 set in system. Does not make any difference. It will always crackle/distort under heavy battle and other circumstances.
I'm guessing it's because the PS5 CPU reaches 100% CPU load/usage during these moments and prioritizes framrate over audio. Which is understandable as you rather have stable frames over good sound and 30-40 fps? My theory is that this is just BF6 being unoptimized. Or the PS5 CPU just isn't powerful enough.
On my PC's I don't have any of these issues. Even on my secondary laptop that has low tier hardware.
RTX 4060 8GB, i5-12450HX 8/12core(almost always at 100% usage), 32GB RAM = no sound issues.
