Sound has better bass than onboard audio. Lack of normal equalizer control.
For the Samsung Odyssey+ it's a common issue to get crackling or distorted sound depending on your rig. Originally I was using onboard FidelityFX sound which came with the motherboard and VR tends to hog up USB ports with both the headset, BT adapter, wifi adapter, etc. I wanted to take some of the bandwidth away from USB and decided to try dedicated PCI-E sound. It had been a few months since I touched VR on account of having to encounter the sound issue and MS's spatial sound (windows sonic for headphones) is just janky. I did get a powered USB hub for the VR unit and followed all of the secret codes to eliminate the distorted sound/cracking issue common to this particular VR unit.
Lo and behold, after I installed the sound card the very first time I used VR in months there was no issue with that annoying sound. I've eliminated the power issue, and any potential USB bottlenecking. Any remaining sound issues are with MS's spatial sound (windows sonic for headphones).
It's worth mentioning I'm on Win 10 build 1809 fall creator update and have disabled updates that will take complete control over the operating system, including video card updates I do not want, as well as tailored advertising which most people do not want. It would be nice to live in a world where I'm not beaten up with advertising no matter where I go, but for now I will settle for an operating system I do have some control over since that's better than keeping my eyes shut 24 hours a day or while driving.
