I've switched my computer to 192 kHz sample rate and now the audio I head while scrubbing in Premiere is a little distorted. Is there anything I can do about it? The audio used in the sequence is 48 kHz.

The reason I want to use 192 kHz is listening to music.

Genuine question: why do you want to set it to 192 kHz?

Which export codecs actually support this?

I don't intend to export anything it that sample rate. The only reason for having windows set to 192 is listening to music.

A simple Google search will give you this answer:

Unless you're recording audio and wish to get the highest quality, there's no real point in setting audio to 192 kHz...

"Why you don't need 24 bit 192 kHz listening formats?

Unfortunately, there is no point to distributing music in 24-bit/192kHz format. Its playback fidelity is slightly inferior to 16/44.1 or 16/48, and it takes up 6 times the space."

32/192 Apple Audio is snake oil.

What's your systekm like? 192 is a very high sample rate.

Are you on a Mac? See this page:

All system sounds are fine - even premiere playback as you can see in the video https://youtu.be/elKlMubKkKI

I am on Windows 11.

So are you upsampling all music that's NOT 32/192?

Are you sure iTunes on Windows is sending Hi-Res Audio to your sound card?

Are you playing back downloaded or purchased tracks from Apple Music? If so, none of them are 32/192. You only get Hi-Res Audio from Apple Music while streaming, and maybe not even that on Windows using iTunes. You will have to research that last bit.
