Linux client: screenshare viewing - audio crackling

TeamSpeak 6 Client

Viewing a screenshare looks and sounds fine for a while, then the audio will begin to crackle
The crackling can be eliminated by setting clock.force-quantum 128

Strangely this also only is a temporary fix, and the same crackling occurs after some time
No matter how much this value is increased, the crackling always seems to return

Thanks for the detailed report, I’ll forward this to QA to investigate.

Also a quick solution I’ve noted is simply rejoining the stream when the crackling starts
