It was the games that were converted to .pbp from an iso that were having audio issues. Converting from .bin using PSX2P2P works fine with just the .bin.

@alexxx You could just create an m3u file (https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/#m3u-playlist-for-multi-disc-games). Works the same as an eboot but without having to convert the bin files.

You could also try a higher compression level inside PSX2PSP, but that can create issues of its own.

@edmaul69 I had it in there initially but I took it out, it's Resident Evil 2, so the actual structure looks like:

• Resident Evil 2 (Leon Disk 1).bin
• Resident Evil 2 (Leon Disk 1)(Track 2 audio).bin
• Resident Evil 2 (Claire Disk 2).bin
• Resident Evil 2 (Claire Disk 2)(Track 2 audio).bin

@Allanbuzzy In the retroarch menu Go Main Menu > Online Updater > Update assets. It will download and extract a zip. When finished go to Settings > User Interface > Menu > Menu Icon Theme and choose what set you want to use, There are a few. You can also change a few other settings in there like colour etc

@Allanbuzzy i run them off the hard drive just fine. No issues for me.

@PetroRie i wish i found that torrent. My retarded self downloaded them all individually. And the site i went to makes you scroll to find game, new page opens, scroll past adds, click on link, scroll down past ads. Click on download. And it only let me download 1 sometimes 2 files at a time. I spent about 15 hours a day downloading for like a week. It sucked.

@suprjami Thanks, yes this was solved. Sorry for not updating.
