Crackling sound while driving vehicles

[Jinnie]

Hello, this was not an issue prior to playing the latest version & DLC, I have tried just about every fix there is - Controller Vibration off, reinstalling audio drivers, switching off audio enhancements, turning on/off Xaudio API, turning on/off spatial sounds, changing audio quality to be 16 bit 48000 Hz. The crackling audio only happens while driving vehicles around busy areas.

If someone has encountered same audio issues and managed to fix them, or just have any suggestions please help me I am about to start malding.

The audio in Red Engine isn't technically proficient. I get a static click every time the game saves. In The Witcher 3, the audio was also not too good. You would think they would have fixed it by now, but no.

Yikes, the weirdest thing to me is still that I had no issues like this before. It's just patch 2.0

Turning spatial audio on in the in-game settings seemed to improve the situation tho (unless I'm actually going mad)

I think I found the issue, this is coming from the sample audio of specific vehicles in the game. So far this issue has been present for me for the "Caliburn", I counted with a timer and every 9.50 secondes the audio pop / crackling sound is appearing.
