Lower FPS and microstutters in game when using the voice chat
Like the title say. For instance, I normally get an average of 150 to 100 FPS in TF2. When using the voice chat It goes down drastically to an average between 45 and 60. And even when the framerate is doing okay I get microstutters.

Specs to prove its not my computer thats the problem:
CPU: i5 4690k
RAM: 16GB DDR3
GPU: GTX 1070

I have the same problem. During voice chatting, i.e. during speaking, steam web helper uses up to 30 % of my i5-7600k. Also happens if someone speaks to me.

Edit: A friend of mine can no longer play Ghost Recon Wildlands with us since his CPU is not able to run the game and the voice simultaneously. Do not know what would make our Computers special for this bug to happen.

valve stop procrastinating. steam needs a full rewrite as of now rather than complicating the issues by hiding/covering/ignoring problems/feedback/concerns.

Nothing passed of as any sort of “solution” functions as anything more than a “slight delay to next occurrence of the issue”

Also, to my knowledge: 5 different programmed statuses that display as “Away”? Away (set), Away (mobile/idle; switches to Offline instead of Snooze), Away (idle cursor 5 mins to 2 hr), Away (set OLD), Away (2+hr AKA snooze)
