Steps to reproduce:

Recorded and submitted 20 voice clips in CV website.
https://commonvoice.mozilla.org/en/speak

Actual results:

After about 20 recorded clips, the recordings contain loud cracks, stutter and echo effects described here (examples are here with captured audio)
https://github.com/common-voice/common-voice/issues/3307

Expected results:

When using Fenix browsers in combination with Common Voice website contributor can record voice clips without these effects!
With Vanadium browser (chromium based) this works.

Summary: After 20 submitted voice clips crackles, stutters, and echo effects appear(Pixel 6 pro) (Fenix)(nightly)(android13) → After 20 submitted voice clips crackles effects appear(Pixel 6 pro) (Fenix)(nightly)(android13)

Just curious, were you using a bluetooth headset, wired or the built in microphone while recording?

The clips recorded in this issue were recorded with the built in smartphone mic.

I re testet on the CV webpage and this issue still exist (recordings with many crackles, sounds like a very old record on playback)

The behaviour of this bug changed.
No echo or stutter effects any more.
But the loud cracks start immediately on replay after the contributor has recorded 5 voice clips in moz/cv website.

Thank you for the report!

I was able to reproduce the "cracks" issue on the latest Firefox for Android 123.0 build, and on Nightly 124.0a1 from 2/15, with a Google Pixel 6 (Android 14), and with Samsung Galaxy S24 (Android 14).
Not reproducible on a Realme GT Master Edition (Android 13).
