Audio popping issue

[TojiSuzuhara]

Idk if this will work for you but it worked for me.

went to system config, sound settings,

Volume Settings: MV-100,BGM-10,SE-10,Voice-10,SS-10,AS-10,Perfomance-10.
Player effects volume: all 60
Equalizer: Standard
Spatial Audio *this one seems to be optional from what I tested*: ON

changing it all to that seemed to mostly *though not completely it still pops in from time to time* get rid of the static for me and I just adjusted the sound on my headset to be able to hear better in game, hope it helps I messed with my head set for ages but adjusting in game volumes seem to be the only thing that worked. I
never seemed to have any fps drops or freezing during static issues however

i tried this and although i only got a few hours of playtime cause of maintenance, i went through a few dungeons, did some fates, tested on a dummy and it seemed to rid the audio bug almost entirely. only time it ever creeped up was during loading screens into super congested areas (sharlayan, limsa, etc) only downside is audio will be low still but its way more manageable than loud and staticky. hoping this holds out til the fix

These sound settings are making it somewhat tolerable. Still bad though.
