Snap, crackle & pop audio

*Update*

After swapping out drives, doing a clean os/drivers install on the new drive, I decided to try again and use the SBz sound card. This time I installed the older drivers (2017 version), and whaddaya know, it works perfectly fine now. No static or anything

I'm still scratching my head and wondering wth was causing the static issue. I checked and rechecked everything and I couldn't find the culprit. For now Imma enjoy my sound, but I ain't letting it go. Dam problem has got under my skin!

Driver issues. I need to re-remember this every time I cross paths with hardware issues. Seems that frequently enough by my own experience and reading the forums that this winds up being the problem.

I dunno if it was driver issues. I had the same problem with the onboard audio.
