Hello,
some of you might have heard about the very annoying issue where for whatever reason the music stutters and the game as short lags.
Well, it's really upsetting because it makes the game unenjoyable.

Here's a "fix" which at least worked for me: Tell steam to stop downloading whatever steam is downloading (in my case an update for Vermintide II) with maximum speed and rather throttle down to down to 1.000 kb/s. Then wait for the music to settle and go back to 100.000 mb/s and it should work just fine.
At least it does for me.

So whoever is looking for a solution to solve the problem, there seems to be a connection between steam being steam and Surviving Mars music stutters.

That's it. That's the post.
(Why you ask? Because google will bring it up in case someone else has a similar issue; alongside with 45 threads with the issue from 2012 or so...)
