Not really. It all boils down to understanding what you are doing. Windows sounds can be turned off. The best sound card in the world isn't going to stop anyone from transmitting garbage. Understanding includes setting the audio levels correctly throughout the system. I've used my PC sound system with two simple audio cables for years. Now I have upgraded my K3 with the K3s I/O and simply pipe audio, CAT, PTT and PC CW down the one USB cable.
