Battlefield 5 audio crackling

I have looked everywhere but it seems nobody has this problem and thats why I am here. My audio, as soon as music or any sound in-game starts to play I get massive crackling and cannot hear the normal audio. 

It is not because of lag

I have default audio settings

DirectX version 12 

and my computer can and has run it fine before so I have no idea the problem. I even checked all the drivers and Nvidia settings.

  • Let us tcheck a few things:

    • there is a possibility that choosing Repair after right clicking the game in Origin could fix this.
    • disable nahimic in taskmanager\startup and restart the computer
    • remove audio drivers with a Driver cleaner
    • download and install latest audio drivers from computer manufacturer
    • remove the bfv config from username\documents\battlefield v\settings and restart
    • check wires of audio output
    • unplug usb devices not needed
    • test other speakers / headset
    • remove 110/220v power cable and hold the start button for 30 seconds
    • reset the bios of the system motherboard
    • post a dxdiag

  • @DrChaseHX I hope all of you have resolved the issue on you machines. If not, I also ran into the same issue and tried all the steps mentioned in this thread (except removing drivers). Nothing helped.
    I contacted the BF5 tech support, they made me run the the game as admin (right click on game icon -> run as admin). the problem is resolved.
  • I'm closing this thread to stop it from being necroed.

    If you have any issues with Battlefield V, please make a new topic about your problems and what kind of steps you have tried to solve them.
