Just to give feedback on my troubleshooting.
My system is a I5-4670, 16GB RAM, Samsung SSD 840 240GB, Soundblaster Platinum, Asus R9 280, PSU is a BeQuiet! 750W.
This should be good enough for the Game!
I Tried so far:
-checked RAM for faults - no failure found
- reinstalled DirectX via Microsoft and via BF4 folder - BF still crashing
- tried all GPU Drivers available - BF still crashing
- installed all new drivers for all HW - BF4 still crashing
- Reinstalled WIN7 64BIt (formanted the SSD) - First day BF4 runs without crashes ...second day BF4 crashes constantly
- Checked all possible Information sources...even used the useless EA HotlineChat (they have absolutely no idea what they r doing) they requested to run BF4 via Chrome instead of Firefox - BF4 still crashing
- I will not underclock my GPU this is something absolutely ridiculous to do to get BF4 running!
- the only thing that is still the same is BF4...-> root cause is BF4!!!!!!
-EA get this fixed ...
I just got this now.... 5th time with this new patch.
BF4 crashed RARELY for me before the latest patch. Now I am getting this sound loop very often.
AMD CrossFire 7950 with 13.11 beta 9.5 drivers.
After the last patch, I still get this crash.

Sound loop? What sound loop?
I fixed it! I found these instructions for the sound loop error, but it worked for the direct x error. I had this error every single time I played, but now was able to play all night. I'm not sure exactly what this does, but at least I have it working for now. Give it a try, and if it still doesn't work you can always just delete the user.cfg file.
Create a user.cfg and place in BF4 directory and copy paste the text below.

gauntlet0 - You rock! This fixed the DirectX error for me as well. I wasn't able to load any part of the game at all since launch until I created the user.cfg and added those settings tonight. Thanks!
