POE 2 / 0.3.0 Bug Report / distorted and crackling Sound Issues

Platform: PS 5

Character: Witch, Infernalist

Playstyle: Fire and Chaos dots.

When using skills such as "Ravenous Swarm" or "Unearth", very loud crackling sounds occur. It seems like skills that produces multiple rapid "hits" within a short timeframe causes overlapping audio artifacts ... idk it's a gues.

I have the exact same only with the LA deadeye build.
After a certain time the sound completely glitches out and starts making very loud scratching and static noises.
When you stom using skills it stops and starts again when you start casting or doing anything triggering a sound effect.

It can only be temporarily fixed with closing and starting the game again.
Happened multiple times already this weekend and my mate that I play with on ps5 also has the same.

Great to hear that! A friend of mine and I are running LA Deadeye builds (both on PS5), and events with major action on screen (like the Abyssal ones, among others) feel borderline unplayable at times because of that noise. Suuuuuuper annoying.

Haven't yet encountered that solo since we ran as a team all weekend.

Having the sane issue with any lightning skill use

I'm having this problem on my Warrior, and it's much worse on maps. Every two or three maps, the sound drops out, and I have to close the app to "fix" it. The sound looks like when speakers are not properly connected in a music show.

I do have the same bug on my Minion witch, LA Deadeye and Fissure Warrior. I think it happens when many overlapping sounds occur. Tried to disable the Echo effect in audio settings but it did not stop the bug from occuring.

Also same problem on ps5

Yeah, thought it was my headset. Changed to tv and external speakers and the game still sound super bad
