Hello friends I'm wondering if anybody out there games on Linux min I currently have a EVGA XR1 pro capture card and it works but the audio is all funky and static like not the proper audio i should be getting from my PS5 have not tried to capture with it from a PC but i tried everything tried using VLC to capture audio and i cant seem to find the capture card in that to make it work so I'm outta ideas i have obs studio and ya I'm reading people have gotten it to work fine but others have issues so I don't know just wondering if anybody has the capture card and runs it on Linux and if so how because its lacking the audio for me. Also what capture cards do you all use that work out the box on obs and on Linux ? Thanks would appreciate any input.🤔

[This reddit thread discusses good capture cards for Linux.](https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1k4grn6/which_capture_cards_work_well_with_linux/)
The problem seems to stem from the pro in EVGA XR1 pro. The lite seems to work, but the pro doesn't.

I don't stream, but I'm okay with using search engines for linux problems.
If you could give the logs I could've a look.
