Question / Help Mic crackles and pops playing one certain game

I'm pulling my hair out right now trying to fix my issue. I'm trying to stream Dead or Alive 6 and every time I launch the game my mic starts crackling and popping. The second I close the game everything is fine again. My CPU is only sitting at 55% usage at peak so it's not my CPU being pushed all too hard. Anyone have any ideas?

I've Tried:
- Switching my sampling rate from 44 to 48.
- Monitor, Windowed & Game Capture individually.
- Disabled all sources besides my mic and game feed.
- Uninstalled and Reinstalled my mics drivers

My current mic is a Blue Yeti and I'm running on a 8700k/1070. I'm using x264 to encode. I'm on Studio v23. Any help would be very appreciated!

There is no VOIP in the game. I thought that might have been a problem as well just to find out the game doesn't use your mic in any way (at least currently).

Hey, just made an account real quick to share what I know. I have the same issue as you do and I've been watching some DoA6 Youtube vids where a lot of people have the same issue.

All I can tell so far is that we all have Blue Yetis, so it's probably got to do with that. But I haven't found a fix anywhere either.
