Weird audio issue and a one time lag

[SpaceGodzilla4evr]

So when I am playing on may laptop and using any kind of headphones (3.5mm jack, USB, or Bluetooth) and have the music going I will sometimes have the sound, both music and general, kind of “glitch” out, like it will get all crackly and distorted for a few seconds before going back to normal.

I have also had it, one time so far, lag for a few seconds while the music was playing, I was only 44 years in and it just lagged as I was scrolling around and it lasted for all of a few seconds before going back to normal.

Has this happened to anyone else, my laptop is a Lenovo Legion 5 with an AMD Ryzen 4800H, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660ti (6GB of RAM) and 16 GB of system RAM.

Thats your system. Sounds like there are other processes that are stealing your cpu process time at the same time you are gaming. The audio being the least most critical process is the recipient of the steal.

I only get this buzzing noise and broken sound with the ship designer open. Has been like that for years, and only Stellaris.

Okay. So how do I fix this issue?

That’s the neat part, you don’t
