Unwanted distortion when playing back sound through audio interface

Question

Hello,

 

I just downloaded Wwise 2021 and I've been getting a horrendous distortion (it sounds like a feedback loop) when playing audio in the authoring software through my audio interface.

The distortion does not happen at all if I switch my Authoring Audio Preferences to play back sound through my laptop speakers or when sounds are implemented in Unity.

It also goes away if I change my Main Mix Channel Configuration to Use AudioDevice ShareSet, but then I only get sound in my left speaker.

Just checked back in Wwise 2019 and this doesn't happen at all with that version.

Regarding OS, I'm on MacOS Mojave.

 

Thanks in advance, any help is very much appreciated!

I'm having the exact same problem -- haven't found a solution yet either.

I would also love help with this. I cannot figure it out for the life of me. It seems to me to be a bit rate issue, but I have confirmed all possible variables are set to the same as my source audio (48k). What’s also tripping me out is I am using an Apollo x8P and the output is sending to Monitor as well as Virtual Channels 1-4. The system is set to stereo, there’s no pass through monitoring, and my Audio MIDI Setup / Console setup seems to all be straight - no amount of toying with all options fix it
