Hi, guys.
I have been experiencing some weird sound bugs (that's the best explanation I can give) lately. I am going to name few, tho they might be or might not be connected to each other, but they started to appear roughly at the same time.
- YouTube video and sound not synchronized - there is some kind of slight delay when I can see that speech is already started and I receive the sound like 0.3 seconds late or so;
- Crackling/popping sound in CS:GO - it's a very slight noise, but it is definitely there;
- VERY weird background ambiance music in TES IV, where I can literally hear the 2-3-4 layers of music not coresponding with each other. Both games are in Steam, but I don't think the games or Steam itself are causing the problem;
- And last, but not least - the Volume icon in the lower right corner (Win10 64bit), makes no sound when I increase or decrease the volume. Before it would make a sound example of how loud the new volume level is and now it's completely silent, even tho it does work.
Yesterday I updated the audio drivers and it seemed fine, but today the problem is back again.
Another thing is that I recently plugged the USB hub cable that came with my monitor (Dell U2515H) in order to be able to use the hub. I can't see how this is going to make any difference, therefore I haven't tried removing it, but I can do it if you think this might be it.
And another thing is that I added new case fan (Noctua NF-A14 PWM), but there is no way this would cause the problem imo.
Any solutions would be appreciated.
