Sound is scratchy

So this issue just started happening recently and I am clueless as to why it's happening.

It doesn't always happen, in fact my "quick-fix" to this is the restart my browser over and over and over. But sometimes when I go to watch anything using Firefox the sound will be filled with static and sometimes even kinda slowed down. I have no idea what might have caused this but it just started happening.


Also another issue is that images don't display correctly sometimes, I will have to keep switching from tab to tab until it displays sometimes. It alternates between a black image, a broken image sign, plain text, or the actual image.
