Simulator 2.7.3 audio playback issues

Something fishy is going on with the audio playback in simulator 2.7.3 (Windows 11). You can hear the sound crackling and some sounds are played at such a low volume you can hardly hear them. It seems to be purely a simulator issue as everything sounds right on an actual device.

I haven't tested with earlier 2.7 versions, but at least 2.6 still worked fine. I'm using lo-fi samples (16 kHz) and play them with samplePlayers.

Here are video clips of the same build running on a device (Mirror) and the Simulator.

Can you post an example app showing the issue or attach a file that is having problems?

Sorry, looks like I was a bit too hasty with my conclusions. The root cause was a corrupted cache in my app. Closing this for now.
