GTA V Enhanced Sound Stuttering

Get Help
1

Hey,

I noticed that when I play GTA V Enhanced, the audio starts stuttering for no reason even though my FPS is stable. This only happened in GTA V Enhanced, legacy version is normal and other contents that produced audio is also normal. Is this from the game or from FXsound?

Forgot to mention that I had to disable FXsound so the sound stuttering stops

Hmm… if the stuttering stops when FxSound is disabled then maybe there is some kind of compatibility issue with this game and FxSound. When you say disabled do you mean FxSound is off or that you’ve quit the FxSound app entirely?

I have to exit the application entirely, just turning off FXsound still produced stuttering with the game audio

No issues in my case in GTA 5 Enhanced but in Red Dead Redemption 2 sometimes sound stutters/crackling but I don’t know if this is a game issue or FxSound incompatibility. Way more people have this problem in Red Dead Redemption 2 when I tried and find something about this issue and they definitely don’t use FxSound.

It’s the opposite for me, last time I played RDR 2, the game just runs normal without any issue with the sound. I also found this post on Steam

do you have dolby atmos enabled and spartial sound on?
check windows sound seting, as far im aware about this kind of issue dolby spartial + fxsound dont mix well on certain games. so either pick 1 disable the dobly from dolby control panel or disable fxsound (by exiting the app) that should fix your crackling.

if the game use dolby atmos = use dolby atmos (exit fxsound) turning it off cause crackling
if the game use 3d audio (sony game) = its better using dolby atmos (exit fxsound) turning it off cause crackling
if the game / older game dont support dolby atmos = use fxsound (dolby atmos on + fx sound wont effect the output no crackling)

Nope, I don’t use any of those. Only FXsound that I use

Same for me.

@renren unfortunately this seems like something that’s going to be really hard for us to test and bug fix. So for now at least, I’d just recommend disabling FxSound when you’re playing GTA.
