discord voice goes robotic whenever wow is running

Discord voice is fine on its own, but once WoW is open my friends say I sound robotic and then I drop out completely. Changed the voice region and turned off echo cancellation already. Is the game fighting Discord for bandwidth?

Also try turning off echo cancellation and noise suppression in Discord for a test. Those run on your CPU, and if WoW has it pinned, the voice processing gets starved and comes out robotic. If that fixes it, cap WoW's fps lower and turn them back on one at a time.

wow barely uses any bandwidth, so it's more likely packet loss or cpu. turn off Quality of Service High Packet Priority in discord's voice settings, disable wow's own voice chat, and cap wow's fps.
