- Marsymars 6mo agoHm, that's possible. Not sure I use headphones enough with it to bother going through a warranty replacement, but I'll keep that in mind in case I get motivated with some free time to do so. The static pattern seems odd to me, but I assume would make sense if the root cause was identified: * Plug headphones into laptop: no static. * Open youtube tab: Static. * Mute audio: Static. * Tab away from youtube: Static stops after ~10s. * Tab back to youtube and start video: Static resumes. * Adjust volume: No effect on static. (At normal listening volumes, static isn't audible over music audio.) I'll note that there are various reports of something almost identical being triggered by a ChromeOS software update ~6 years ago across multiple brands of Chromebooks, e.g. https://old.reddit.com/r/chromeos/comments/fx9y19/samsung_chromebook_static_with_headphones/ https://old.reddit.com/r/chromeos/comments/fx9y19/samsung_ch...
