Asus Strix Raid DLX - Problem with sound cutting

[Kensaii]

Anyone found solution with sound cutting? Im using updated Windows 10.
My issue is when I run game sometimes sound cut happens after 5 or 30 sec of runnig game, im using TeamSpeak 3 all time. Sometimes after sound cut another problem is appear, my mic starting to play sound like "brrr, brrr ,brrr" very fast and my voice is distorted, to solve it I have to go to Sonic Studio and switch input from mic to line then back.
Tried to quit Teamspeak during that issue but no luck.
What to do with sound cutting problem?
I tried to using Sonic Studio 1.1.13 and 1.1.18, I tried to install Asmedia USB drivers 1.16.47.2, 1.16.50.1 and 1.16.51.1
Tried to disable Noise Gate and Perfect Voice.
Nothing helped me.
Appreciate for any help.

Hi gentlemen developers, it's not a bad thing in the next drivers to think about Mode 4.0, this mode has to deliver the same dynamics and sound level without any distortion from an external source and not only.

So many problems with that card.
Sound cutting during playing games, sometimes after sound cut my voice became like robot in teamspeak.
Sometimes have problems with switching from speakers to headphones and back, sound is dissapearing. Very low possibility to crush game after switch.
No bass management, have to use third party software.
Upmix is awfull, sound became distorted and not working with browsers.

I'm dissapointed with that product, never expected to have so many important issues and long time has'n been fixed.

since sound card market are very weak and Asus dropped the designing new sound card in both R&D and production nowadays onboard sound chip has DAC with it like ESS sabre which is very very good no dont waste time and money in sound card and their sound card come to EOL

The Xonar models were great, but the Strix one..is awful. I've bought Denon AVR-X250BT and all onboard functions are working. Even upmix in browsers (DTS NEO/Dolby Pro Logic II). Planning to sold my Strix Soar card to anyone else. In my opinion, in our times there is no place for soundcards (except for those who work with audio, but they don't use such a crap), any cheap HDMI A/V receiver will be better for home use that any soundcard.

I'm so sorry because vendors as ASUS and Creative have such problems with PCI-E sound card.
It's absurd that someone like ASUS can't build problem free Audio Solutions and do much harder things.
Creative Discussion Forum not work any more. Closed.
People like me with 250$ worth sound card, no matter I payed half price but no driver support from 2015.
Newer drivers are only new date. People paid to use sound cards 10 years, after 2 no more drivers.
New windows update and no optimization for them are source of problems.
Someone fix like me, but someone still have problems.

Hi all, as the title I have a problem with my sound card asus strix soar, when cold boot is not detected the card, you need a windows reboot to see the card.

Until last week everything was all right, suddenly it has this cold boot problem.
You hear the relay (click click) only on reboot, coem if the bios does not initialize the sound card, if I go on windows management devices marks the error 45 hw not inserted correctly, obviously disappears on reboot.

My motherboard is the ASUS HERO X z370 with a 8700k mounted.

I have owned the strix soar for two and a half years and never a problem.

What can it be? Quick start deactivated by both bios and windows.

Please help me

Excuse me for English, I'm Italian I helped with google translator

Hi ,

All the people with this issue.

Is the CPU gaining over 80% CPU usage when this occurs? i can only provoke this issue if i get my cpu above 80% usage/load. If im in f.ex Sea of Thieves playing and in CS:Lobby doing nothing and listening to music on youtube the Sound is cutting like crazy. If i'm below 80% CPU usage there is no sound cutting at all. FYI i never play 2 games at the same time. and i cant get my cpu usage above 60% anyways so it doesn't affect me as much as others with a bit older or lCPU with poor performance.

Asus technicians should make a form regarding this, so they can eventually solve the issues . It's 100% the card or the drivers that has problems. Easy search on google for the soundcard, future buyers will find this thread really easy and they will probably stay away and buy other brands.

Hi guys. I found the solution of cutting sound on the STRIX DLX.
You need to update the firmware of the asmedia 1042A bridge located on the sound card.
Here is the firmware.

Wait until the end of the firmware, do not restart the computer until the end of the firmware process.
This solved the problem on my x470 system.
