I do, go guns blazing in underground with a group, and no sounds at all, then all of a sudden ALL the screams and shouts play at once as if delayed and fast forwarded

Yep, audio sounds scratchy and sped up.

Yeah I had the AI voices go all roboto yesterday for like 30 seconds, I think they're have some issues with their server, AI even started teleporting duiring it..

I've also had this problem since the new update, Static audio over all the Sound and Sped up convesations like chipmonks. Its very annoying and would love to get a fix for it.

This is a known issue in The Division, post 1.4.

But we have a potential workaround for the time being:

Potential Workaround: Changing the windows sample rate may resolve the issue. To do so, follow these steps:

- Right click your windows volume icon and open the Playback tab.
- Right click on your active device and go to properties.
- In the properties tab, go to Advanced and change the "default format". Change this value.

Let us know if this helps.

Lowering it from 192000 to 96000 actually did get rid of the "scratchy chipmunk", thanks for addressing this, and giving us a workaround for the time being. :)

I am having this issue also. No sound coming from running and when jumping onto or over cover and buildings ect.

I had this same issue on the PTS and with the 1.4 patch. Like the OP, once entering the game, all sounds were fuzzy and distorted, and NPC dialog and mission narration was sped up at about 4X speed. Normal updating video drivers didn't help until I did a "clean install" of the latest GeForce driver (375.70). That fixed the issue for me, and I did not need to make the workaround changes described above.
Running 2 GTX 980's in SLI on Windows 7.
