The "due to" comma

Please have a look at this sentence. I get really confused about when to put a comma before "due to."

He holds onto Paul’s wrist, but he can barely make a sound, due to how tightly Paul is holding him around his throat.

Should there be a comma before "due," or should I lose it? Let's say it was "because of" rather than "due to." Would it make a difference as to whether there ought to be a comma after "sound" or not?

Thanks.
