[URGENT] Having a huge music cut glitch and delayed audio on cutscenes

[Axelux]

First off; I meet all the recommended requirements except the SSD, I installed the game on an HDD even if the game recommends SDD.
This bug happened since the beta but I thought it was gonna get fixed in the full game;

When im hunting my music gets cut off randomly, happens with ambience sound too. This alone is very annoying but I can bear with it.
BUT
The audio from cutscenes also gets cut off, and the cutscene still plays out with the audio TOTALLY DESINC. and it happens more than once.. even several times I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE 😭😭😭💔💔💔 please help

I can record a clip where the bug happens if necesary but I think the title is pretty self explanatory. Somewhat similar to this cutscene problem happened to me in world too... but not that extreme.
I need to know if my SSD is the cause for this incredibly annoying bug. If it is i'll buy a nvme SSD 2tb (i was gonna already buy it tbh i needed one)
The game runs pretty nicely for me with my 4070 super, I'd like to not have to rely on frame gen to go above 60 but eh, having a way to limit the frame gen to 60 frames so I dont have that much ghosting would be just perfect.

EDIT:
It was indeed the HDD
Moving the game into the new HDD nvme I installed completely fixed it

Dont ignore the minimum requirements, specially the ssd requirement

Deactivate voice chat in the settings and the error should be resolved.

REALLY? ITS JUST THAT??
Im getting the SSD either way, I have huge load times, today I died and I had to wait more than a minute to get out of a black screen in a multiplayer hunt

I think it got a bit better, I get less stutter on the audio but it still happens I gotta test more

It has to be the Hdd though, I see on Direct Storage "CPU" instead of compatible. SSD is really mandatory for this game

Hey, few questions:

-What does the rest of your setup look like?
-Audio drivers up to date?
-Does this happen with other games or just MH?
-Do you use speakers, sound system or headphones?

Are you connecting with HDMI or displayport and are your cables up to date?

If you're running on an HDD, yeah that could be an issue, games are too large/complex to run properly on HDDs these days.


While not quite the same issue, this could help:
I had a ton of sound drop-out and audio delay issues when going through my sound system, but no issues with headphones. It ultimately ended up being my 3080ti not liking my Sony TV and something to do with the rtx30-series having high DPC latency issues. Going back to my previous card fixed it.

Windows 10 (not sure about 11) has this stupid feature where it 'sleeps' your HDMI audio device if there's no audio being played, so anytime I played a game, tabbed out, watched a video - the first 5 seconds was dead air and if a game went fullscreen it would often completely kill audio.

I found software on github called 'soundkeeper' that helped a ton, it keeps an open inaudible audio stream so your HDMI audio device never sleeps.

For me installing the game in the 2tb nvme ssd I bought completely fixed it

When I made this post I installed the game in a old ass +10 years old hdd
- I had atrocious loading times, sometimes it was +2 minutes
- annoying but bearable music and ambience random cutouts while hunting
- and the worst one, desync cutscenes where the voice lines ended up delivering several seconds after the subtitles

Guys dont ignore the minimum requirements, specially the SSD requirement 🙏
