OS: Win 10
Headphones: Sennheiser HD 598

Info: When I start Diablo 3 I hear a brief high pitch screeching noise for all of a second and then the audio is fine after that. I never had this noise issue before and have even tried running Diablo 3 in compatability mode for Win 7. Im am using onboard audio from an Asus Z97-A. 32 sound channels for my in game choice.

Other info: If I change the speaker type and cycle through mono, stereo, 7.1, etc etc I hear the screech noise each time I change it.

I am hoping someone can help me figure out why this is happening and how to fix it!

Thanks,
JW

Other users have reported hearing strange sounds when starting games on Windows 10.

I also get some noise when starting games. It seems to be only on my center channel, but since that is closest to me, I would hear it first.

So far it has not caused any issues.
