Audio Cracking/Popping above 30 fps
Bungie Account Name - Guars#2534
Platform - Steam
Description of Issue - Audio popping only at above 30 fps, I've tried from changing the bit rate of my audio from Windows, selecting the right output device, changing to other audio devices like speakers and nothing seems to work, only thing that has fixed it so far has been limiting my FPS to 30. Which makes the game uncomfortable to play as I can comfortably play it above 60 on almost all maps. My specs are RTX 4060, I3 10100F (I know it's a CPU bottleneck.) and NVIDIA drivers are: 595.79 GameReady drivers. Additionally, I played during the Server slam and this issue was not present on that version of the game. I also do not have any software that might affect audio directly.
Rough Date and Time of issue - March 22 - 23
Repro steps - No specific way to reproduce it, other than a lot of gunshots and stuff happening around me.

Hello there,
Thank you very much for reaching out to us. I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues with your audio when the framerate is above 30. To start, if you haven't already, we'd recommend ensuring that all of your drivers (especially your audio drivers) and Windows itself are up-to-date. If that is the case or if that doesn't help, to help us continue to investigate the issue, can you provide us with a short video showing the issue? You can upload it to one of the media-sharing websites listed below:

All drivers are up to date, additionally, tried doing another clean installation of Nvidia drivers this time using the 'Studio' ones, it has mitigated the issue but it's still present, here's a video that allows to briefly hear it, it starts around the 1:09 mark until the end of the video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohP1MvPjnTQ ). Limiting the fps to 30 again seems to fix it completely, but as I mentioned this bug was not present on the server slam, it could very well be faulty Nvidia drivers that don't work well on Marathon with my specific specs.
