Oi I got some issues with DOTA2: music or every sound in the background is lagging every 5s or so, while the game is still fluid ... I lowered the graphics options etc but it didnt change anything. Its the first time i got this problem, games like Diablo 3 or Hon are running perfectly.

Thanks for help ;-)

Update your sound drivers, if that doesn't help at all try adjusting the settings in your playback/recording devices. Do you use onboard sound or aftermarket card?

Are you listening to music from YouTube ? If yes, that might be the problem, try listening to music using Winamp?

Try using YouTube or Winamp then, I never heard about FOOBAR 2K, that might be the problem.

Hi so I updated all my drivers, no difference, I also tried to listen music on vlc, wmp and youtube, the sound is still doing some " crcr " parasite sound. :-( :-(

EDIT : I really think the problem comes from dota coz when im on the deskopt with dota open while specing a game the sound is fine, its only when I'm actualy on the game

Try disabling the V-Sync from the DotA 2 client.

Hmm, I'm not sure... I think you'll have to post your issue on dev.dota2.com, where they can help you fix your problem.

Also, moved this thread to Support.
