Hey guys,
I upgraded to Windows 10 from 7 a few months ago. I didn't have any issues with any of my games or anything until I got my new headset, which is a Siberia Series 150. After switching to these my games and some other programs have started to give me some really weird and unusual problems.
Whenever I try to open certain programs such as steam and many steam games, my audio either cuts out completely, cuts in and out and when the audio cuts my frame rate dips to below 10 FPS (regardless of what the game is), and if I'm in a skype call then I have to call it again because my audio from that just dies entirely.
I also notice the same thing happening when I unplug or plug in my Xbox 360 controller.
Another thing, the games where this issue happens the most is on Dark Souls, where it refuses to launch altogether now, Dark Souls III, where I get the non stop audio flickering and I can't play, and it seems to happen on any game that has controller support.
The only way I have been able to work around this is by using actual headphones that go through the audio jack, and not through USB. However, I'd rather enjoy listening to my games through my headset than some cheap $5 headphones.
If someone could help me fix this issue then I would be very grateful, as I have not been able to play some of my favorite games for about 2 months since this issue has popped up.
