i make the Vive Deluxe Audio Strap with Headphones on Pimax 5k+ and i have sound interference, cracking… i tried all usb ports on motherboard (USB2,3,3.1) and external USB PCIe 3 Card… on all usb ports the same sound interference, cracking… i disable also the sound enhancments… enable/disable the HDMI Audio Setting in SteamVR… but nothing works… any hints?
with vive no problem with sound interference/cracking
Last time I used my 5k+ I had a crackling in the headphones. I thought maybe it was a software problem as the 3.5mm Jack was securely plugged in.
I will try again tonight with different headphones & sound settings & report back here.
EDIT mine turned out to be ok. Could have been the extension cables I was using or maybe just a software glitch.
Wireless headphones would be the easiest fix. Just stinks when the new headstrap arrives. Mine luckily seems to work fine but there has been a number of complaints on audio.
