I am having the funniest issue! Somewhat recently, I have been having my audio crackle and randomly stop, but ONLY in Counter Strike 2 itself. discord (yes i have to use it as all my friends do and wont change) and background applications keep sound going fine, until I unplug and replug my headphones to get sound back in CS. Then It goes for about another 10 minutes until I have to do it again. It feels like its sometimes triggered by a certain gun or grenade sound, and i hear some fizzing and crackling before it happens. No other program does this.

Very weird. I believe I have pulse audio installed. I am not sure how to check if pipewire installed over top of it or what (i read maybe pulse is the issue?) I tried verifying game files which did not help.

Linux mint, newest stable kernel (i forget which)

Any help appreciated…I know linux doesn’t have the best audio situation.

    I’m guessing ‘WINEDLLOVERIDES’ should be ‘WINEDLLOVERRIDES’. Though it could be same misspelling situation as with the ‘Referer’ header in HTTP.

    Also took me a while to read it as something other than ‘wined lover dies’.

      You are absolutely correct about WINEDLLOVERRIDES. Had to look it up, twice.
