Fix ads bugging out stream audio.
I've seen multiple people talking about this on reddit and twitter, there seems to be a fair few people who are experiencing distorted audio after an ad plays. Seems to mostly be firefox users.

I have had this for +1 year now as a Chrome user. Its super annoying and I have to refresh, sometimes just to get another ad. When there is no ad the audio is fine.
EDIT: Its probably subtle for most people. If you have good speakers/earphones you can hear the distortion.

These new pre-roll adds that fire when you switch channels (primarily the Travis Scott McDonald's one) always break the stream audio and video. Kind of a robot-voice/fast stuttering situation. It makes it completely unwatchable. It's easy enough to fix by refreshing but now that the adds play every time I watch a stream it's very annoying.

Make sure that the ads don't break the sound on the stream Currently on channels where I don't have a subscription the streamer sounds like they are underwater. Always needs several refreshes to fix the sound. It never happens on channels with no ads so it must be related to the pre-roll ads.

I have sound problems very often after ads. They play and afterwards the streamers sound is 90% noise. So I have to reload the page, have to watch another ad and hope that the sound is fixed. This is super annoying and sometimes I just quit the stream. I am happy if I can support twitch/streamers by watching ads but watching the same ad over and over again just to eventually fix the sound feels like a waste of time.
