Hello.
Using a GTX 1070 8G on a S5520HC Intel server board with 2xX5650 and 24 Gb RAM with a Dell U2410 connected through Display Port I get audio skipping from the DP audio.
The sound quality it’s as expected, but i get random audio skips. Like the driver it’s shutting down and then coming back. It lasts only a fraction of a second. I disabled PCIe energy saving in Windows power settings and trying different settings at driver level I noticed that pressing on apply causes the same skipping effect. So it’s clearly something to do with the driver or the OS handling of the driver. It’s the first time I use audio from this video card so I do not know if it worked before or not. I also switched from the game ready driver to the studio one.
I also had Asus GPU tweak2 running in the background. Closing this Asus utility made the skipping occur less frequently.
I am now rebooting in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS…and check the condition there as well.
L.E.: Same issue on Ubuntu as well, but occurs less frequently than on Windows.
Any thoughts on this? Has anyone encountered such a behavior.
Thank you !
