Hello,

I’m currently playing RoboCop Rogue City and I’m having issues with the audio. As I play, the audio stops every 5-10 seconds for about a second or two. This really breaks the experience and is also a problem during dialogues.

Here are my specs:

  • I’m using Kubuntu 24.04
  • AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor 2.2GHz
  • 32GB RAM
  • NVidia GeForce RTX 3070 8GB
  • Motherboard: ASUS TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (Wi-Fi)

Note: I’m using the onboard audio, but the audio is going through HDMI to my monitor to which my speakers are connected.

This isn’t the only game in which this happened, but I can’t remember which games that was. It’s usually in more graphic intensive games.

    Might check the kernel log to see if the kernel is emitting error messages that look relevant.

    $ journalctl -krb

    (will be in reverse order)

    Or

    $ sudo dmesg

    EDIT: Might also check to see whether it still occurs if you plug headphones into your motherboard’s headphones output and switch to using that as your output with pavucontrol or similar.
