Hello,

I am having issues with my Logitech G430 headset when I play EVE. This is the only game or program that I have any issues with this headset. When I do anything in game the sound will slightly cut out and make small popping/crackling noises and this will affect whatever coms I am using (TS3, Mumble).

Headset: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA30R19M5277

I have checked all the drivers and they are all up to date. Direct X 11 is up to date and has no issues with the headset. When I completely disable in game sound the issues goes away but I like to play with the game sound barely audible in the background. If I have to I will play with the sound off but I would prefer not to.

If anyone has this issue and has fixed it, please help.

Thank you.

Same story with my Logitech G35 headset. That problem always with me since 2011.

I use Win7, Win8.1, always new Logitech drivers since 2011, I used 2 headsets (old and new revision). Right now I'm in this topic, cause I tried to search maybe someone else have this problem.

What I found by myself with this problem:

Cutting down volume level and cracking noises appears when you use EVE with enabled audio and Logitech headset.
When you're in dock (hangar mode) - that effect continues all time with small pauses
When you're out of dock and camera close to ship - volume cutting down, no cracking noises
When you're out of dock and camera on mid-range from ship (the most useful camera postiton) - volume level always switching from little mute mode and back (that cutting down effect appears and disappears), always popping/cracking noises.
When you're out of dock and camera far from ship - normal volume level, no bad noises.

It would be nice if Devs will try to fix it.
Don't know, but maybe it's possible to record that thing, I'll try to make it if Devs will need it.

Still no resolution. A GM contacted me and told me to put in a bug report. If we all put in a bug report sooner or later they will have to fix it.

Yesterday all sound turned off in eve, can't launch audio in eve. Maybe devs started to work with that issue?
