Windows 10: Audio cracking on speakers and in headphones

ok so the issue goes like this: the audio coming from my laptop will suddenly start cracking and does not stop if I unplug my headphones. I don't remember when it started because it was rare at first but now it is so frequent that it gets extremely annoying and I can barely stand it anymore. When this happens the only solution I have been able to do to temporarily fix this is by turning windows sonic (spatial sound) on and then off again. I have tried reinstalling audio drivers and installing other drivers to no avail. is my laptop dying?

:)

 

Audio cracking sound in the laptop speakers.

Experiencing cracking sound on my laptop, seems as though the speaker is broken. Sound is fine with headphones .Windows 10.

Audio playback through headphones and speakers

Hi Greg,

Please share this information to assist you better.

• Are you thinking play audio through speakers and headphones at the same time?

If yes, it's not possible to do so. You can only play audio through speaker or headphones at once.
