Hello Folks,
I think I have a similar issue, when I have the AAA battery inserted into the right headphone, I can hear an annoying repetitive ticking in the right headphone, in both bypass and normal mode (for normal mode, if noise cancellation is turned on the noise disappear).
If I use the bypass mode I need to take out the battery of the headphone and then the noise will stop. It's not a convenient solution for me since the battery can be easily lost and the battery door doesn't seems as solid as the rest of the headphone.
Anyone with the same result, I don't think this issue is related to grounding issue like previously.
Thank you in advance for your help.
