Crackling sound when using headphones - 16.04 [duplicate]

  • 772

I'm experiencing an extremely unpleasant crackling noise whenever I try to use headphones. Even when I simply perform a sound test and "front left/right" is announced there is a great amount of crackling on the side that isn't being tested.

This has meant that my headphone jack is practically rendered useless because it is very uncomfortable to use headphones at any volume.

System: HP OMEN (15-ax003na)
Card: HDA Intel PCH
Chip: Realtek ALC295

Anyone else have this hardware or similar and experience this?

I've tried both of the solutions offered on this thread for 12.04 and it didn't make a difference.

16.04

  1. May be there is problem with your audio jack. Try some other headphones with your system if it is crackling again then there are chances that this problem is due to your audio jack.
