While the crackling is happening, what does pw-top show, especially in the "ERR" column?

The pw-top image shows that your alsa_output device quantum is at 256. This number is related to the current PipeWire latency and not all systems are capable of handling low latency with heavy plugins like the deep noise remover. Try to temporarily set a higher quantum https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/wikis/Guide-Latency to see if this fixes the crackling. Try power of two values like 1024 or 2048.

I have no idea how to do what you said, I don't fully understand. can you help me.
pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.force-quantum 1024 i tried this but this now I have no sound.
Ok now my voice is coming.I fixed it but still have crackling

Even when forcing higher quantum values like 2048 or 4096?
Settings done through pw-metadata are temporary. In the worst case scenario a reboot will restore your settings.

The problem is sometimes there is no problem and there is no crackle in the sound, but when I restart again, it happens.
What happens if you load other effects instead of deep noise remover, like the equalizer? Is there still crackling?
Also, note that you should only need to use one noise remover; either Deep Noise Remover or Noise Reduction, but probably not both.
edit: just double checked, apparently the flathub build of easyeffects is still compiling against libpipewire 0.3.69 for some reason
edit 2: remembering that this is probably because ubuntu 22.04 LTS is still shipping 0.3.48
I there, I also have the issues when I want to use the Deep Noise Remover.
I only have this issue with that particular effect, everything else so far works fine.
I'm using bazzite as my OS, and Easy Effects is a Flatpack.

It appears that the latest version (7.2.3) fixed the issue. Nothing else changed beside that.

The changes in 7.2.3 are for future PipeWire releases. They should not be making any difference. Specially considering the code is essentially the same. I've just replaced some function calls by another that does the same thing.
