Audio pops and crackles only when in performance mode (lm.put.tf)

Hi, I have currently arch installed with power-profiles-daemon, pipewire and wireplumber on my laptop.

If I have the power profile set to balanced or power saver, everything is fine.

However, when I set it to performance, the audio starts having very bad cracks and pops.

Has anyone experienced something similar with their setup?

Thanks.

I had a similar problem: the audio started creaking when the computer was on heavy load and wouldn't stop until the pipewire service was restarted. I was using linux-zen kernel and I read that this was a known issue of linux 6.4, if I remember well. Using linux-lts solved the problem. Hope this helps!

That might actually be related, because I'm also using the zen-kernel.

I'll try with the regular and lts ones and report back.

Thanks!
