Audio Robotic/Choppy

Ok, bare with me on the explanation and thank you in advance.
I use a GOXLR mini which has multiple audio inputs and outputs which can be custom routed. I have everything routed to the broadcast stream mix and all works fine if that’s set as the global mic in obs audio settings.
I decided I wanted to cut out my mic when I go to my “be right back” scene so removed the stream mix from the global audio (all now disabled) and added individual audio input and output captures to each scene ie gameplay and chatting scenes have the broadcast stream mix and brb and starting scenes have individual audio captures like music and discord.
This worked well until I found that sometimes when transitioning from the brb or starting scene to chatting or gameplay scene, the output audio is “robotic” and “choppy”. Multiple times I had to unplug the GOXLR and Plug back in which messed up all the routing.
once I realised the cause was transitioning, I swapped everything back (removed individual audio capture and added stream mix back to global) and all fixed.
move tried playing with the transition audio settings (cross fade and fade out to transition point) and still plays up sometimes.
Listening to the output of the broadcast stream mixis fine while the output to my stream is still playing up so it’s not the GOXLR. It’s something to do with transitioning audio captures.
Any ideas?

Had the same issue and was about to ask for advice then fixed it.
It seems to happen when your computer gets overloaded when processing audio, what I had to do was reduce the audio quality.
This may sound bad but I didnt have to drop it far enough that you would notice anything.

Did anyone else experience this too, this is the only thread I Can find about this? Anyone else got solutions?

How far did u drop the audioquality and where? @tedztar
Im having real issues here with this changing from headphones to speakers and vice versa, completely random it breaks the microphone and I have to reset the GOXLR for it to work again.

The solution for me was matching the audio sample rate both on Windows (sound control panel) and OBS Studio (settings / audio tab). I used 48khz.
