Hello @user_9ipo94, thank you for coming to our forum for help with your audio issues. Those are never fun to deal with, no matter the channel. Is this the only channel you're experiencing issues on? Also, have you tried any troubleshooting steps on your end? That way we can limit any repeated steps as much as possible.

Seems to be limited to 188. I have done system refresh and/or rebooted boxes several times. This is one of several issues that I have.  Guide is generally slow to appear. Channel changes are slow. Channels above 1000 freeze. Streaming apps are slow to open, and often close on their own or buffer frequently. 

I haven't called xfinity yet, as I know it will be a long, tedious, frustrating experience as the reps merely repeat everything I tell them and offer only to do a signal refresh. 

All of this for $272/mo. I'm ready to cut the cord!.
