RoboCop Rogue City : audio pauses/gaps (piefed.ca)

Hello,

I'm currently playing RoboCop Rogue City and I'm having issues with the audio. As I play, the audio stops every 5-10 seconds for about a second or two. This really breaks the experience and is also a problem during dialogues.

Here are my specs:

  • I'm using Kubuntu 24.04
  • AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor 2.2GHz
  • 32GB RAM
  • NVidia GeForce RTX 3070 8GB
  • Motherboard: ASUS TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (Wi-Fi)

Note: I'm using the onboard audio, but the audio is going through HDMI to my monitor to which my speakers are connected.

This isn't the only game in which this happened, but I can't remember which games that was. It's usually in more graphic intensive games.

Y'know, I have another problem altogether with audio in Linux in general. Whenever audio starts, there's a fraction of a second where it doesn't play anything at the beginning and the audio just "wakes up" and starts to play. This drives me insane when editing sound and music. Also, you won't hear simple notification sounds because of this. This is permanent on all Linux devices I have and it appears to be a widespread. People have complained about it for a while now and have been trying to figure out workarounds because it seems the devs don't give a crap about that.
