Hi, I have the same audio problem (I use Prime4+). I discovered something important to consider: if I use tracks analyzed by stems, they produce the drop, but if I use the same tracks without stems, the audio drops don’t occur. Note that this happens with FLAC, MP3, or ALAC… I use an internal SSD and an external SSD connected via USB 3.0 (SX2000), and the result is the same on both drives.
I loved the new update, but if it is not working well, we will have to go back to .a 4.6
