Horrible sound after launching the game

Everytime i launch the game, the sound gets glitchy. Its like a static annoying noise. I have realised this problem happens when i connect to the servers and i also have realised that the sound gets fixed for a short period of time once any kind of origin notification sound plays in the background.(a friend starts playing a game, invite notification...etc.)

I tried using different USB ports for my headphones and it worked for a couple of days but now the different USB port trick doesn't seem to work anymore. The game works fine when i play with speakers but once i switch to my headphones i get irritated by this annoying sound again.

I have seen people say disabling audio enhancements does the trick but that doesn't seem to be the case for me since i cant even see a tab where i can access audio enhancements when i click on my headphone.

This problem has been haunting me since a week and i cant enjoy the game anymore thanks to this issue.

    The sound just isn't working.  Its just making this popping sound over and over again.  I can't hear voice lines or any music just constant popping.  There are no mods and everything is up to date.  All my other games work both on origin and off origin.  It's just Battlefront 2

    Hey @Khaganay  what software are you running for the audio headset? 

    Thanks for the details! 🙂

    I have seen also some other people have the same problem. The sound after i launch the game goes all glitchy and static. It fixes instantly but for a few seconds once a notification from origin or discord pops up but then goes all glitchy again. I've tried playing with speakers but the audio sucks again. Really doesnt let you have fun

    @EA_Atic I have tried disabling every kind of boost the software has and that didn't work. I have also tried completely uninstalling the software and that didn't work either.

    @EA_Atic Also any kind of discord notification fixes the sound for a period of time.I believe this issue has something to do with audio drivers conflicting or a software trying to boost a sound and when a 3rd party sound plays the conflict between drivers gets fixed or something

    I keep getting intermittent sound issues while playing Battlefront II. What usually happens is I will get to the music in the first loading animation (the one with logos) and that will play normally for a few seconds before all the sound becomes extremely 'fuzzy'/static-sounding and distorted. Sometime the sound randomly goes back to normal for up to a few hours, before becoming distorted again. I had sound issues as soon as I installed the game but they resolved themselves for a couple of days until this issue started. Already tried repairing the game, and moving it from D to C drive, but this hasnt changed a thing. Updating the Nvidia graphics card and performing a clean install of the sound drivers (based off the Nvidia launcher at least) didnt fix it either
