Tuftuf Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) During general use or games I get audio dropouts, the sound just disappears and comes back 5-15seconds later. I'm using a USB headset passed through to the VM. I did not have the audio issue on Seabios before I moved over to OVMF and uefi boot. Only recently added <hap/> to the config, I've had mixed results with it and might remove it. If I set npt=0 my FPS will increase from 80 to 140 but the CPU is always reaching 100% and causing pauses/slowdowns and FPS drops. With npt=1 I get around 80 FPS and its stable, although other games its much less. This is based on overwatch that often gives high FPS compared to most games. CPU also spikes when booting windows all cores top at 100% and when idle. Had a few boots where windows doesn't finish booting while using npt=0. Normally my cpu are assigned as 8,10,12,14,9,11,13,15 but it doesn't make a lot of difference to performance. 8-15 are isolated from unraid Open to suggestions, thanks.
