Lately, whenever I play Arma 3, whether it be offline or online, the sound will at some point put completely cut off and be replaced with a very annoying and constant 'clicking' sound. When the sound is cut off to be replaced by this, it is not only the game's sound that I am talking about, but also TeamSpeak sound, or any music being played in a separate window (even though I play music whilst playing Arma 3). The sound doesn't have a certain point of playtime where it will kick in, however it never seems to exceed 5 minutes of playtime within a server or single-player mission and has sometimes even started immediately. I am yet to encounter a session of playing Arma 3 where this does not occur since it has started.

For me, all I have to do is:

Additional Information
I attempted to search online for any other players who might have experienced a similar situation, but only failed one single person whom posted a Steam Discussion to the Arma 3 Community talking about exactly what I was experiencing. The only difference between our situations was that they stated that they only encountered the issue in King Of The Hill servers, whereas for me, it was in everything, and they also somehow got it to work in the end. The Steam Discussion post can be found here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/107410/discussions/0/492379159713868323/.
I also recently did purchase a new headset: Plantronics RIG Surround Sound Gaming Headset (https://www.jbhifi.com.au/games-consoles/platforms/gaming-headset/plantronics-rig-surround-sound-gaming-headset/641467/) but I'm still not sure whether or not to think that they are causing the issue or not as this issue does not occur on any other games (including DayZSA if that matters).
