Public bug reported: Sometimes when I open Firefox and play a video or start Plex Media Player or start to play a game I get a distorted audio/sound.
I modified the Pulse Audio daemon.conf by this tutorial https://medium.com/@gamunu/enable-high-quality-audio-on- linux-6f16f3fe7e1f to improve the sound in Linux. The deamon.conf should be attached. When I get this issue I have to open a terminal and enter »pulseaudio -k«. After this it's normal again. Here's a complete hwinfo: https://gist.github.com/Johnnii360/1cbdbb0f27180013652a01f21c2f4792 My sound card is a Creative SoundBlaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty (EMU20k2).
