I ran into a strange issue with my GameCube and I’m curious if anybody has seen anything similar before. The audio drops out every second or so. The weird thing is that it works perfectly fine on some boot cycles even after hours of gameplay and then pops up during other boot cycles right from the beginning.
It’s pretty random but it always either happens right from the start or not at all. It occurs with games from disc and games from SD card. Maybe faulty capacitors? A wonky power supply (mine is an original)?

You’ve checked that the audio cord is plugged in all the way and not damaged? Guessing you’re using composite or component
It‘s unlikely to be a loose connection. I‘m using the digital port of the GameCube with a GCVideo adapter to HDMI. I also tried replugging it when this issue occurred, just in case some sync signal got out of whack but the issue persists :/
For anyone finding this issue on Google in 10 years or something:
I didn’t completely fix the issue yet but it’s definitely related to my digital AV adapter. Some settings related to the sync rate can cause this issue from time to time and switching it on and off in the settings of the adapter can alleviate the issue.
