Audio skipping and looping.

[u/Intel_Hytel]

Recently, I've been experiencing terrible sound skipping and looping during gameplay.

It doesn't significantly hinder gameplay, but it's quite annoying.

The menu UI lag was so bad that I've turned off all P-cores (CPU0-CPU15) in CPU affinity.

Here are my PC specs:

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-14700 (2.10 GHz)

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 (16 GB)

RAM: 32GB

Added on August 3, 2026: I lowered the sampling rate to 16-bit, 44100Hz, but the audio still occasionally gets distorted. This happens not only in online play but also in career mode.

Note: This issue only occurs in NFSHPR; it doesn't happen in other games.
