When using my Vive Pro with the wireless adapter, the sound sometimes cuts out constantly. This is difficult to describe, so here's a video:

And here's my SteamVR console output when this happens:

For some reason, it either has the problem constantly during gameplay, or it doesn't. In other words, if it doesn't happen to be doing it, I can play for an entire session with no problems. But if it is acting up, it will not resolve itself.
This is not CPU-dependent, either. I played No-Man's Sky yesterday at settings that were way too high for my system, and it was reprojecting terribly. When this was going on, the audio never cut out.
I really like the wireless system, and have been dedicated to trying to find a solution. I actually have three sets of wireless adapters that I've mixed and matched parts with. I have gone as far as replacing all the parts, but the problem remains, so I am almost certain that it's software-related at this point.
In addition to replacing the system, here are the things I've tried with no success:
- Adding fans
- Setting process priorities
- Putting the wireless card into different slots
- Reinstalling software and drivers
- Restarting
- Changing modes in the adapter settings
- Disabling the camera
- Disabling audio devices I am not using
- Setting the audio devices to different bit rates and depths
- Changing various settings in the BIOS
I am so overwhelmed by this problem. It's so incredibly frustrating. VR is unplayable with the audio behaving like this.
Is there anything I should inspect or try?
