Ever since the full version of the game I have had very random sound spikes. Hard to explain to make happen on demand but they exist here and there. Suddenly a sound that is 3x louder than anything I have set in sound will just SPIKE and im like WOAH what was that!
I have messed with sound drivers, sound settings and still at the most random obscure times these sounds just pop out of nowhere. I get a lot when in a cave I have noticed but its not 100% triggerable. I have almost assumed there could be an overlapping audio track that is hidden and glitching for me for whatever reason.
Very random and I cannot find a fix for this thus far. Im running Real Tech HD audio on my laptop and I wear a basic Logitec 20$ stereo headset/mic combo.

Read other threads and didnt find much on this specific issue, perhaps this as a clearer explanation of the problem in case the thread does in fact exist.

Best way to describe at least a lot of the spikes…it sounds like a rim shot on a drum set!

I get the same thing. I have the ingame sound set very low as I am using voice comms. All of a suddent one particular noise will be played at max volume and destroy my ears. If it is an attacking sound or the sound of an enemy being hit it will repeat as that action is repeated. Moving away from the noise source removes this until you get closer again. I am also using Realtek HD onboard audio and a Logitech headset.
