Star Wars Battlefront Sound Static/Crackling
Many times during longer play sessions, the game audio will start to make a static/crackling sound. Have not had full out no sound at all, just the crackling sound during play and when the game start...

Can you try reducing the sample rate from 48Khz to 44.1Khz. This has been reported as helping here:

Additionally, if you have the option to increase your audio driver latency that could help.
Tried this, didn't help either. Also, I have to say it seems odd that all "solution" suggestions are geared towards changing Windows/driver settings, when this is the only game with the problem. Why should we alter/degrade sound settings in general because this game is buggy?
And yes, I know this is a debugging process and an attempt to pinpoint the issue. I just think we're treating the symptoms not the cause, here.

If you have an audio latency setting (possibly called buffer size or similar) it will be in your audio hardware control panel rather than in-game. Increasing the audio latency/buffer size may help. Additionally, it may be worthwhile reseating all of you audio connections.
from the microsoft website, when i googled audio latency/audio buffers
>This topic discusses audio latency changes in Windows 10. ... Starting with Windows 10, the buffer size is defined by the audio driver
i see also a bunch of registry keys mentioned. so it appears windows 10 does not have any ability to change this, it is defined by the driver, and windows 10 will interrogate the driver and/or hardware to discover the range of buffer sizes the hardware or driver can use. there is nothing in any of my audio settings to change latency/buffer size.
perhaps a future update to either my amd drivers or my realtek ones may fix this problem, but since i do not know how battlefront is triggering the issue, this is more a hope than an expectation.
in short i dont think anything short of a patch from DICE/EA or from microsoft/AMD/Realtek can fix it. hope i am wrong tho.
EA its not the computer causing the problems its battlefront and I'm begging you to just fix it.
please

I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.
If you have any issues with SWBF1 please make a new topic about the issues you are having and what kind of steps you have tried to solve it.
