Hey all, I was trying to run Devil May Cry 5, but there is some severe audio stuttering that can lead to performance issues. This also happens on games like SCP:Pandemic, however it does not happen when playing games such as Night in the Woods or Purrgatory. I’m using XFCE. This appears to be both happening on DirectX12 and DirectX11, I’m using Proton 7.0.3 on the runtime version of Steam. My audio manager is PulseAudio, and here is my inxi output:
