Summary of issue: HDMI audio keeps cutting out on XFX 6700XT SWFT in games, movies, youtube, etc.

System Configuration:

Operating System: Windows 11 21H2, OS Build 22000.1098

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, no overclock

GPU: XFX 6700XT SWFT on Adrenalin 22.10.2 Optional (WHQL)

Motherboard: ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING (WI-FI)

Bios 2803

Just put this system together yesterday and audio keeps cutting out randomly. Swapped different HDMI cables, clean installed windows 11 3 times. Using heaphone port or swapping in a 3070Ti fixes it. I even tried it in my 12900K build using the same drivers and it does the same. Is my GPU bad?

Hey! did you ever figure out what the issue was and how to fix it? I am running into the same problem with my ASUS Dual 6700XT
Unfortunately no, I ended up moving the 6700XT to another setup as I couldn't get rid of the problem. A used 3080 fixed the problem....

I would try Uninstalling the Realtek motherboards drivers to see if an older version still have to same issue. Maybe a displayport to hdmi cable will do?
Tried that and it didn't fix it.
