Starting about a month ago, I started getting lots of crackling audio in games. Not sure what the issue is. It tends to be with loud noises, almost sounds like clipping.

Anyone else had this?

Edit: Fixed by installing realtime-privileges (arch) and adding my user to the realtime group

Does it specifically occur with games? Does a loud video produce the same result? Do you have different speakers you could try?
