Have you tried Kubuntu?
Its packages were too stale for my liking.
Neon is latest KDE on top of Ubuntu LTS.
Perfect.
I don't think desktop influences audio. I wouldn't have thought switching composers could influence audio either, but while "voice quality sounds better" is quite subjective, it's irrefutable that the crackling is gone now.
And, it's *extremely* weird. WebRTC + Xorg + 3rd monitor = noisy. WebRTC + Xorg + disabled 3rd monitor = fine. WebRTC + Wayland + 3rd monitor = fine (maybe even better than before). I just cannot fathom what might be responsible for the noise that drove me nuts during video calls for almost an entire year. 100% reproducible, -100% discoverable.
