Awful mic quality in Discord

For some reason the quality on the call (and in testing too) is awfu: the audio always stumbles and it's just unbearably bad. I tried alsamixer setups (20% and more levels) - doesn't change much. Tried to turn on and off all these avaliable technologies of noise reduction - didn't change much (both versions of Discord: the browser one and the Linux 0.54). On the other hand, if im trying to record the audio or to send audio messages thru lets say Telegram or Whatsapp the sound quality is fine. Realtek® Audio CODEC High Definition Audio (Starship/Matisse HD Audio).

Based on your report it's without a doubt a discord problem Check your audio settings in Discord, turn off the auto level stuff and anything else that looks suspect

I guess so... Had the same issue on Pop_OS but couldn't find a solution. Maybe there are other ways to configure discord?
