hi, as the title suggest i am having an issue with my new rift s that after a while it is plugged and it is left unused it starts to make this loud crackling sound that stops only if i unplug and plug back the usb cable. it also does it sometimes if i try to use the pass through function. also when it is working the volume seems quite low and i dont know if thats just how it is or if it is an issue
Hey @Jacopo94, we are aware of an issue that may cause poor audio quality in your Rift S. We are actively working on a fix to address this. We currently don't have an ETA, though. Thanks! -Rick

It's auto limiting past 50% which it is possible to prevent by removing it and allowing it to get double volume it has right now! Then you can benefit from the Bass Boost too which presently is reducing the volume even further due to the DAFT LIMITER!!!!
I also had a strange crackling sound. In my case it turned out to be the fireplace in the room. Took me a while to figure it out until I used the set up several hours.
