Hello everyone,
since some days I am experiencing strange issues with my laptop
headphone jack.
When I boot into Windows 8.1, everything works as expected. No problems
or cracking sounds.
When I boot my Arch installation, it seems like everything breaks.
My headphones randomly produce loud cracking sounds and when I manage
to get something out of them, the sound is blurred and sounds disturbed.
Searching the Asus FAQ's gave me:
https://www.asus.com/en/support/FAQ/1009646
But I do not know how to check for these settings and wether this
applies to me.
Some system information:
