Audio popping/crackling with version 1.13.1 #469

Do you still have this problem if you use 1.13.1's executable along with 1.13.0's |
That fixed the issue! Replacing the |
Do you think it's related to this SDL2-2.0.22 change? |
I tested this on my laptop as well and it exhibits the same behavior. My desktop has an AMD X570 series motherboard with a Realtek audio chip. However, I'm using a USB DAC audio interface instead of the regular audio jack. But the popping still happens over the USB interface as well. My laptop is also an AMD-based system with a Realtek audio chip. I tested it with some basic earbuds plugged into the audio jack and it has the popping on version 1.13.1. But replacing the Laptop audio: |
Can you also test whether SDL2-2.0.20 has the issue for you? I.e. the dll from |
That SDL file (I used the 64-bit one), paired with 1.13.1 sounds fine. No popping or crackling. |
So 2.0.22 has the issue -- possibly due to the change I mentioned above? |
Seems plausible. Unfortunately, I'm no developer so I can't really comment on such things. |
I'm experiencing the same issue |
Seems like the solution for the moment is to either use the |
@sezero Where are we with this? Should we revert to 2.0.21 in the meantime? |
Can you reproduce the issue, btw? |
Ok, so I tested the vkQuake 1.13.1 app image on the Steam Deck (Linux) and it does NOT have the audio crackling or popping issue that my Windows machines have. |
Ah, well now I feel stupid. Turns out if I force my audio device to use 44100 Hz instead of 48000 Hz, the popping/crackling goes away. I'm sorry for the trouble, this seems to have solved the issue. @Riccardoman Is your audio device set to use 48000 Hz in the Windows sound settings? If so, try setting it to 44100 Hz instead. |
So this is an SDL issue, and we're working on it, but this vkQuake bug can probably be closed. |
Thanks @icculus |
Hi, I noticed that there was some strange audio popping/crackling in the new 1.13.1 version that was not there in the previous version. This seems to happen with sound effects and is most noticeable with the axe "ting" effect and the nailgun firing sound.
As a test, I tried a fresh download and extraction of versions 1.13.0 and 1.13.1 with no external music loaded, no mods, only the
PAK0
andPAK1
files under theid1
directory. All audio settings were left at defaults.Here's a video demonstration with audio that has the crackling:

00:00 - Version 1.13.0 with no audio crackling
02:10 - Version 1.13.1 with audio crackling
04:20 - Lowering the game volume doesn't seem to make a difference
You can hear the direct difference most easily from the axe "tings" at timestamps 0:30 and 2:43.
