Windows 10: Audio keeps cutting out when I play games, and mouse and keyboard inputs are dropped as well

I have a laptop that has a 3080 laptop GPU and an 11th gen intel i7, I use an external keyboard running qmk and it acts as a USB hub for my moondrop moonriver 2 dac. I also dual boot windows and linux. As of a couple weeks ago I have started having my audio cut out when I play games and this has been a consistent issue to the point where it is hard to play some of the games that I want to play due to the numerous audio issues with them. I have tried rolling back my graphics drivers to an older version using DDU but that did not work. I really would like to find a solution to this as soon as p

Audio Cutting out

Hello, my name is Bryan, and i have been having some issues with my computer audio, the symptoms are:

-Game Audio cutting out very commonly

-Youtube/Internet Audio works fine

-Any game audio on multiple platform having this problem

-Ive check my audio driver and its up to date.

-Ive notice that when i open my sound settings the 2 input and output device started flashing, then i open it up and happen to see a High Definition Audio device keep appearing and disappearing, even when i have my output and input on another device. This
appearing and disappearing is causing my audio to cut out from my game, it is also affect my framerates causing it to drop or freeze. I have tried to disable it and unplug all device connected to my PC but it still happens to do the same.
