ok i dont know when this started to happen probably a long time ago, i just never care for sound since i turn it very quiet. but today i saw a video on youtube of eve online and i noticed the sound during combat was amazing so i turn up my sound it it sounds crappy like usual. missile explodes but audio cut out during the explosion. when i zoom out away from the ship, the gun fire sound sudden turn super quiet.

I know there is something going on with the sound i just never thought i care about it until i realize what i was missing. I saw some old posts having this similar issue but i could not find any solutions. thanks

I have these problems sometimes. I usually turn sound off when it happens.

Also happens to me, usually when you zoom in. Starts popping and crackling, then you have to turn audio off and on to fix it.

I've experianced this problem... I take off my headphones and everything is good again. Eve is as good without sound.

i also use headphones but i cant use speaker because they are horrible. Also like someone said i try to turn off the audio and turn it back on. I found that work but just for a few minutes , afterwards the audio stars to cut off again. so is not using headphones the only solution or is there a better fix? thanks

i can confirm that if i disable and reenable the sound on eve settings, the audio will be perfect for a few mins, then sounds will start to degrade and lose eventually starts to get cut off midway

I get this too, disabling the sound and re-enabling solves it for awhile at least.

Session changes seem to fix it.
One thing I notice that definitely seems to cause it is having camera focus on an object that subsequently despawns. It's happened when I've had camera focus on ships as they blow up, and I've also had the same happen when I've had camera focus on ships while they do the safe logoff.
