Having the same exact issues. Or sometimes it just randomly is way louder on the left or right ear bud. I have tried 3 different headsets. Logitech, Steelseries, and basic plantronics. I have no idea what's going on. Nothing in my headset settings or windows is preferring a right or left channel, and the absolute garbage static is sometimes ear splitting.

I'm also having the same issue on a corsair void elite. Very annoying to say the least

The only way I have seen it sound normal, is if I try to restart the game multiple times and the sound only lasts for a while before it goes back to static and muffled.
