What can cause Audio4DJ to sound ****** when playing audio from the browser?

Lentin

I have this issue where my audio would sound terrible when I listen to audio from the browser after a few minutes of listening.

I usually solve this temporarily by disabling the Audio4DJ and enabling then the issue persists after 2/3 mins some times less than that.

It almost sounds like when you running a DAW with a lot of heavy plugins and you start running out of Buffer Memory and it starts to Crackle and sound ******. Usually Increasing the Output Buffer size helps a bit in general but in this case It's not that or it could be, I don't know, I ain't running some heavy audio processing in the browser, just normal audio playback.

My thought is, there's something that goes wrong. It could be how the Web Audio API is implemented which isn't playing nice with the Audio4DJ Driver or vice-versa.

This only happens once I start playing audio via the browser. I tried most popular browsers, Firefox, Chrome & Edge(I don't know if there's a standard defined for how audio web api should be implemented but I guess there is since they all cause the same issue with the Audio4DJ device) and they all produce the same error.

OS: Win10 & Win11
Audio4DJ Driver Version: 3.1.0
Firmware: 5

Anyone had this issue and how did you solve it?

I don't own a MAC PC so I haven't tested on MAC if the issue occurs. It could be how Native Instruments implemented the WDM audio driver on WIN that's causing the issue, not sure but please let me know guys.

Check your windows audio settings. Maybe it's running on 96khz or something like that.

No Sir @lord-carlos
It's always running at 48khz.
