Key notes

Good news for Xbox users. Microsoft just rolled outXbox Insider Build 2303.230227-2217for the Omega ring, bringing a plethora of new features, fixes, and improvements to life.

One of them is the audio stuttering bug where users experience out-of-sync and cease playback audio. Being released for the Omega ring means that the feature is close to the general availability release.

The bug can be annoying and choppy, especially for those games that require high mobility, or those online plays that require you to listen to the conversation in real time.

While there are plenty of reasons that cause this bug, some users of high-resolution triple-A games with an over-the-top graphic requirement like Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk 2077, and the Horizon franchise are prone to this issue.

So, are there any workarounds you can try to fix this, and what other features are coming within this update? Read along to find out.
