Audio/Video constantly stuttering on Xbox

For a few weeks now I have been having an issue on Madden 20 for the Xbox One. Every 15-30 seconds I will have a terrible stuttering from the audio, and sometimes the game will get choppy at the exact same time. I have contacted EA Support at least ten times and gone through every single troubleshooting step they have suggested or emailed to me. Nothing is working. I even factory reset my Xbox to find it still happening.

Also, whenever it gets choppy, my friends say at that exact same time I will also be cut off from party chat and they can't hear me for the brief few seconds. I thought it might be the disk but I signed into a friends account to use their digital copy and it still happened. This doesn't happen to any of my other disks or digital games. At this point I'm not sure what to try but the support chat told me to post on the forum in hopes this can get forwarded to the team and something done about it? I have found that it is happening to people on PC but haven't seen it happening to anyone on a console. I am not able to attach a video of an example of the sound I am getting but I will post a link below to an example of this happening to me, this is the sound i am getting all the time whether loading into the main menu on startup, navigating a menu, or playing the game.  It is becoming unbearable.

    Check the vents on your console to see if they are clogged with dust/lint.

    That, and your fans running at high speed may indicate your console is overheating.

    If that is the case, power off your console and physically disconnect the power and then use the smallest attachment on your vacuum cleaner to hoover up the lint from the vents.

    Let us know how this goes, thanks.

    I didn't see a single piece of dust but I I tried vacuuming the vents just in case but still no luck, same thing happening. Perhaps there could be unseen dust already deep inside? But even when I first start up the console before it even has a chance to get warm it is happening.
