Running fedora 35.  
whenever im playing a youtube video or getting a discord notification, i get a lot of noise in my headphones. My headphones work just fine with my phone as well as a mac. Do i have a bad headphone jack or issue with software/drivers?

windows 10 isnt bootable, its just an install and i dont want deal with partitioning and risking wiping my current install. i dont have any spare nvme’s to swap out  
i should also add that there is a loud beep-like noise when audio starts and soon after it stops

This has been discussed in other threads. Here is one that mentions a solution for Fedora 35.

> I’ve not much to add, either, some sound issue on November batch DIY i5, Fedora 35 KDE (on both Wayland and Xorg). Kind of similar to what @ImaxinarDM mentioned. Whenever I’m going from silence to audio playing (even system sounds or notifications), there’s a sharp beep or crackle. Only happens if something is plugged in the audio jack. Laptop speakers themselves and anything attached via HDMI don’t produce this sound.

Look back through the thread for others experience.

@Edward_Gray i tried the solutions provided by Andrew\_Marshall Passerine, neither worked for me unfortunately

@Josh_Cook i looked on [[Framework Laptop BIOS and Driver Releases](https://knowledgebase.frame.work/en_us/framework-laptop-bios-releases-S1dMQt6F)] and it doesnt seem to be available for linux yet
