Aurora R11, Discord goes fully robotic when chatting
Hey folks,
So I'm having a pretty new issue with my PC, this only started happening when:
1) My warranty expired.
2) We changed to a Unifi network.
I really hope that in both cases it's a coincidence.
When I'm talking to people over Discord and playing something online like World of Warcraft, any time I look up at a large rendered skybox my voice goes fully robotic in Discord and I have to look back down at the ground to stop it. I've got a 3090, so I'm wondering if possibly the card is drawing too much power rendering things? Still exploring to see if it's a network issue too.

This has been happeneing to everyone I know these days. The only fix I have found when I was talking to my Discord kitten is that you need to switch the servers your Discord server or call is on. For example, you can go ahead and switch to asian servers or singaroreon if you are on europe and that will fix your issues. Atleast it has been working for me and some others.
Well, the one thing in life you want to avoid is talking to your Discord Kitten with a robotic voice. It might scare her, and she will scamper away.
Been running Discord and WoW (long raiding sessions, etc.). Never had that problem. For years on a loaded Aurora-R6 (Nvidia GTX-1070, Windows-10 etc.) and now on a custom-build ...
Intel i9-12900K (12th Gen)/32gb DDR5 5200mhz RAM/ Nvidia RTX-3080 FE (10gb), Windows-11A year ago, Discord was acting up. Ended-up being the Micro-USB cable that plugs into the bottom of our Logitech Gaming Headset. Kinda weird was we never disconnect that plug. New generic high-end braded cable fixed it up perfectly.
Months ago, WoW patch downloads (and Steam games installs) were pretty slow. Gaming was fine. Ended-up being the little 5-port consumer-class 10/100/1000 desktop ethernet switch (for everything on this side of the office). It was running ports slower than normal (confirmed with SpeedTest.net to Spectrum cable servers ). Seems we just "wore it out". Replaced it with a Netgear ProSafe 8-port (Un-managed) and cleared it right up.
Remember, in Discord ... you can lock it to specific devices (instead of system default) ... can aid troubleshooting.

I use Discord everyday and have a 3090 I have never heard of this issue. Right click on discord icon and Run as Admin then retest. thats the only thing I can come up with, if I hear someone else with that issue I will report back.
