My new PC has some sort of audio interference and crackling (even muted) that intensifies when I open some (but not all) games or programs (Mostly Steam, tested in both steam and steam-native packages and some wine and native games) ; there it even intensifies. (This doesn’t happen when I manually increase Case/CPU/GPU fans.)
This interference doesn’t exist in Bluetooth, but in analog audio outputs (case front panel, motherboard, HDMI, DisplayPort) with different speakers and headphones. I have tested it, and the same issue occurs in an Ubuntu live ISO.
The front case jack, and motherboard jack, I would expect are using the ALC1220.
HDMI out from your RX 5700 however, would be bypassing the ALC1220. I assume you’re connecting your headphones/speakers to the audio jack on the display in that test?
If the issue is consistent when using HDMI, I’d have to wonder if it is the headphones / speakers, or some EMF in the room causing an interference of some sort?
Yes, that’s what I did but I was using DisplayPort not HDMI, Idk if that changes something.
They don’t have this problem when they are plugged to other devices, but I just was able to test it with a cabled earphone (pretty bad quality), an old monitor speaker, and two normals speakers wich for some reason have their volume so low that I don’t know if they just don’t have the inerference.
Yes, I tested two Speakers and a Bluetooth earphone.
It could be, but I don’t have this problem when plugging other computer and devices in the room, also, the interference reacts some how to things done in computer for example moving the mouse or a webpage (in both monitors). Maybe my old second monitor is generating the EMF.
