Strange issue with playback on all projects running fast

So yesterday i open premiere rush and all of my projects are playing double speed, (not an issue with just speeding up a video funciton) they are all set to normal speed.

 

If i create a new project it plays double speed right away, all old projects play double speed, this is only happening on my laptop, surface laptop 3,  running windows 11, never had any issues until yesterday.

 

have been on to adobe support multiple times, tried many things, but no resolution.

 

to me it seems just in general the playback is stuttering fast, even if i use the speed funciton to half the speed of the video it sounds stuttering, im thinking could it be a hardware issue on the laptop?

 

has anyone come across this and resolved?

found the issue, in case it happens to anyone else, under preferences - audio input, was set to my webcam, changed this to onboard audio and works fine now

Switching audio inputs fixed the playback speed issue for me too. Adobe obviously haven't bothered to address the cause. This is not a satifying solution... this is a strange (unintuitive) fix to a stupid problem!

Thank you so much, I just had to change it to a random one then back to my headphones.

Thank you for this.  I had the same issue start happening literally overnight for whatever reason, and I was getting really frustrated trying to figure out why, wasting hours of time I should have been editing.  I think it's so incredibly stupid that a microphone input setting on a video editing software can cause serious stuttering during playback.  Unreal.
