I hope this is the right place, i am not sure what it woulds go under
I got Windows 11 at the end of July this year when I replaced most of the parts of the PC, mainly because of Windows 8.1 not being supported soon, but that’s not the point,
I bought creative stage 360 soundbar with a new soundcard this is connected by an optical cable (I was told it would be brilliant sound) a play mostly a game called Farm Together, it was all going well until after a few weeks I noticed the sound would go fuzzy or crackly a bit it to and froing with creative they eventually had to swap out the soundbar and sub-woofer because the sub-woofer stopped working, again the crackling reappeared so I thought maybe it’s the sound card – Creative gave me a list of things to try settings to change - one of these seemed to work, turning on spatial sound in the PC settings. I was happy for about a week when it started again so I changed the said setting back it stopped the crackling – this has now been a game for the last two weeks changing this setting back and forth– its very random and can go days without doing it, SO two questions could it be what I suspect it may be and the game messing things about somehow or Something else – sorry this is long or even possibly makes no sense at all – I don’t have other speakers or soundcard to try out (this was suggested by Creative) The optical cable doesn’t click into the soundcard I think it just hangs on in there for dear life….. ANY way thanks for reading
