There's no definite fix for these issues, but what usually helps is reducing the audio sample rate down to 44.1kHz. This isn't done in-game but in your system-wide audio settings: [http://imageshack.us/f/18/11249342.jpg/ shown here]. Testing different values for the audio latency (this time in the in-game menu) is also worth trying.
