uConsole CM5 — Hissing/crackling noises when moving the mouse, clicking, or screen refresh — Bookworm, Kernel 6.12, battery-powered

Hi everyone,

I’m experiencing a new and unexpected issue with my uConsole CM5: it now emits hissing or crackling sounds whenever I move the mouse, click, or when the screen refreshes (e.g., scrolling, switching tabs, redrawing windows).

This never happened before — the noise issue only started recently.

Anyone else is experimenting this?

Thanks,

Olivier

seems like it related to power delivery circuitry as it was made for CM3, but CM5 a bit more power hungry

Thanks, I wasn’t aware of this.
