I updated the drivers and now the built-in microphone has a high-pitched and crackling sound. How can I solve this? I have already reset and formatted the notebook and the problem still persists. (different from previous post with same title)

My device updated and now i sound like a chipmunk. I use ROG Zephyrus G14 GA402XV. I dont have the option to roll back anymore so i would be thankful if someone can find me a working driver.
