Sound crackling, clicking etc. when playing sounds
Hello there,
I just got myself registered and I have some problems with my sound which now exist for ~ 6 months.
1. Problem:
You could describe the problem as a sound clicking or crackling. Those appear in various situations, for example when playing a MP3, videos from YT, gamesounds and so on. Mostly they occur when the sound starts or ends (for example a cut in a film), even the simple windows-sound when adjusting the volume has this problem, when i rappidly klick on the volume-slider.
Things i tried, nothing of them helped:
Reinstalled Windows 7 two times, bought a new headset (QH-95), bought two different soundcards (Asus Xonar D1 and Asus Xonar U7), bought a new mainboard (ASRock Z77 Pro3, same as my old one), updated all drivers (reinstalled windows), checked the sound with the Latency Check-programm (everything is green), tried playing the sounds without soundcard (Asus Xonar D1) , changed sound frequienzies, played audio without WiFi on, played audio without any devices (apart from headset and mouse) and defragmentaded my harddrive.
There is still no solution until this day. I slowly start to belive i'm the only one who can hear those sounds, it's just crazy and and the same time also depressing.
Examples of videos where the crackling appears for me:
5:29 - 6:00 (continiously)

1:08 - 1:15 (continiously)

1:21 - 1:22 when he starts driving over the kerb (again, "at-the-start-of-a-sound-clicking")

Video made by me; right after the downshifts 0:10 - ...

2. Problem
This should be easier to resolve: Sometimes i get, out of the nowwhere, extremley loud "white noise", example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KaOrSuWZeM.
After i stop the audio (for example Youtube-video), the problem stops.
Also, my right headphone sometimes stops working, but it can't be the headset because it works perfectly on my smartphone and on other devices. After a restart of windows the problem is solved.
PC Specs:
ASRock Z77 Pro3
Intel i5 3570k (was overclocked, but resetted it)
8 GB RAM
ASUS HD 7950
1 TB HardDrive
Thermalright HR-02 Macho (CPU-cooler)
Senneheiser PC360
Asus Xonar D1
Logitech G400 (Mouse)
Logitech G510 (Keyboard)

Now it's your turn. Those are the most frustrating PC-problems i ever had, hopefully somebody can help me.
