Q: Headphone Having Noise
Method 2 :

generated and noise may be heard. So please try to clean the audio connector
that the device is connected to.
2. In addition, when reconnecting, make sure that the cable is correctly inserted into
the interface.

Method 4 :
1.Lower the volume appropriately
2.Adjust the volume of the computer and headphones. If the volume is too high,
the sound will be distorted and broken. So please adjust the volume of the
computer and earphones.
Method 3 :
1.Use headphones away from home appliances
If the headset itself or the cable connected to the computer is near other
household appliances, the electrical signals generated by the household
appliances may affect them.
2.To determine the influence of electrical signals in the surrounding environment,
turn off your home appliances and check whether the earphones are noisy. If the
cause of the noise comes from home appliances, it is recommended to keep the
earphones and cables away from other home appliances as far as possible.
A: It may caused by temporary failure or any other setting problem, please try the
following operation to find out the proper reason;
1. Clean up the interface
Dirt or rust may lead to poor connection. The headphone jack may not work
properly. Try to rotate the jack, clean the interface and other operation to
improve the poor contact and then reconnect it. Check “Microphone Volume",
“Headphone Output" and “Volume Control" from the audio device page.
2. If the other party cannot hear the sound, or the sound is severely ripped, it is
likely that there is a problem with the “microphone volume". Increase or
decrease the volume of the microphone until the microphone input audio
remains at the “appropriate" value. If you cannot hear your own voice,
please check the “Volume Control". When the volume is too low, you may not
hear any sound. In some cases, please try to switch the "headphone output"
to set not only chat audio or listen to all audio.
3. Restart PS4 again, much error can be fixed by restarting.
