Windows 10: Steam message notification sound crackles

Does anyone have this issue? Sometimes when Steam is running in the background and a friend notification message appears, the notification sound from Steam crackles. It's random. The next time, the notification sound plays, it could be fine.

It happens even if i'm not gaming, idle on the desktop.

I connected a Chord Mojo to the realtek onboard optical output, and even the Chord Mojo has the same issue. Changing the realtek driver doesn't seem to make a difference.

I have the same issue with two different motherboards, b450 mortar max and x570 aorus master, they both use different realtek audio chipsets.

I have tested using different bitrates, including 16bit, 48Khz default. To no avail.

Tested both Windows 10 1909/2004

(SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

 

Text Message Notification Sound

The "text notification" only plays if you are not actively looking at that conversation. The "alternate notification" (ding!) plays when a message is added to the conversation that is currently being viewed.

Here is an example:

• Your phone is in your pocket and the screen is off
• Your phone makes the "text notification" sound.
• You pick up your phone, activate the screen, pull down the action bar, and touch your new message
• You are now inside the messaging interface, viewing the message.
• IF you stay on this screen, all subsequent messages to this conversation will result only in the "alternate notification" (ding!) sound
• If you leave this screen (another app, or the home screen) your "text notification" sound will play

This behavior cannot be altered in the current version of the software. My suggestion is to either simply read your messages from the notification area and swipe them away, or else read your messages from the app and then return to the home screen.
