Why not use the headphone jack and your PC's line in for audio instead if the speakers are A-OK?

Figured I'd bump again. Audio sounds really compressed and distorted on any game when hooked up to computer. Works normal coming out of DS speakers and when I have headphones plugged into the DS. It's just when I try to capture the audio on computer it sounds super distorted and compressed.
Are you using a ground loop isolator? https://ebay.to/3heZxWI

Check your mic / line in settings.

I had this same issue and this is what fixed it for me. The default mic/line in settings Windows set made the audio sound like a garbled mess.

I may have found the cause of issue, my computer's in-line microphone only has 2 channel settings for some reason (2 channel, 16 bit, 44100 Hz (CD Quality) or 44800 HZ (DVD Quality)) . Anyone know how I can add 1 channel settings? That'll probably fix it. Sorry it took me so long to respond, I was away from home for the week.

For the record, my laptop has only 1 audio jack which is both an in and out, and it is in my device manager as "Realtek High Definition Audio."

It's the sample rate that matters here, not channels. If it's doing 44kHz by default then that isn't the problem.

Interesting... it must be something to do with my computer I suppose, because the audio jack itself works fine, I plug my headphones into the DS and the sound comes through perfectly. When I plug it into my computer though, if I can get a reaction at all, the audio on the DS often just comes out distorted/compressed at seemingly sporadic intervals. I've tried multiple cables as well, so that doesn't seem to be the issue.

Okay I'm surprised at myself, I actually figured it out. Turns out, it's cuz of this program on my computer called Sonic Studio. It was messing with audio input in the background, and after I disabled it, everything is coming in crystal clear. Radical.
