High DPC latency causing full audio dropouts on my audio interface

Hello, Darkly1001

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

If you have performed a reinstallation of the Windows operating system and continue to experience latency issues, it is improbable that the operating system itself is the root cause. Instead, it is more probable that the issue lies with either the hardware components or the game software. It is recommended that you seek guidance from the respective hardware manufacturer or Ubisoft, depending on the specific circumstances.



Furthermore, given your expressed desire for optimal latency while playing Rocksmith, your post will be relocated to the appropriate section, where individuals with specialized expertise in this section can readily access it and endeavor to assist you in resolving the matter.

Here are some tips which may help:

• Don’t use HDMI for audio. HDMI cables can introduce latency because they have to process both video and audio signals. Use a different audio cable, such as an analog or optical one, to connect your PC to your speakers or headphones.
  
• Use an internal soundcard. External soundcards or USB devices can also cause latency because they have to communicate with the PC through a USB port. If possible, use an internal soundcard that is built into your PC or motherboard, and make sure it has the latest drivers installed.
  
• Configure the game options. Rocksmith has some settings that can affect the latency, such as the bit size and the latency slider. You can try lowering these values to see if it improves the performance. You can also reset the game options to the factory default settings if you are not sure what to change.
  
• Check your cables and ports. Make sure your Rocksmith cable and your audio cable are plugged into the correct ports on your PC and are not loose or damaged. Also, avoid using any adapters or splitters that can interfere with the signal quality.
  
• Avoid overheating. If your PC gets too hot, it can slow down its performance and cause latency issues. Make sure your PC is well ventilated and has enough space around it. You can also use a cooling fan or a laptop stand to prevent overheating. If your PC is still hot, turn it off for a while and let it cool down before playing again.
  

Feel free to let us know if you have any other concerns.

Best regards

deadpool played for me in 4k but froze at spots with audio dropout and frozen picture

Not had this problem with the Xbox One yet however i did have this problem with my 360, have you tried changing your HDMI cable as with my 360 it turned out that my HDMI cable had become faulty and was causing the same audio and visual dropouts like you
described

^^^^^^No where it says A / V stands for audio, video. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a separate port that transfers audio and video in the same cable and it is clearly stated on the XBOX. It will say on the back (HDMI) So if you don't know
if you have it, then it is pretty safe to say you don't.
