thanks a lot guys, if only there was similar guide how to fix rattling face/ABXY buttons…

What headphioes do you have when testing the jack ? Impedance also helps

Can anyome meassure LCD deck buttons diameter ?

No way this is software issue. It’s interference.I plugged in my headphones (Sony XM4s, Sennheiser HD 598) via jack and also plugged in the charger and could hear even increased noise (humming, very significant) while charger was plugged in.Note: Humming in Sennheiser HD598 was very low, i would even mark it as acceptable.

So this has to do with different impedance of headphones (16 Ohm Sony vs 50 Ohm Sennheiser.)

So I think the solution is either return the unit, or use usb-c dongle as external DAC. (or bluetooth low latency headphones if you have some)

Make a ticket with Valve. Someone mentioned in another topic that swapping to old LCD buttons solved this. I am awaiting their response on this.

But it’s important you open tickwe as well.

Can you list issues here ?

Do you experience static noise from 3,5 ?mm jack ?

I do and wondering if its common or not.

what about 3,5mm jack static noise ?

Turns out the interference seems to randomly get better or worse. Never goes away. Someone suggested it was tied to GPU clock. So strange.

did you hear update from support ?

not everyone uses wired headphones these days, someone doesn’t care about bt added latency.

Can you make video of this issue ?

Contact support immediatelly. They help you and gave you optioms.

In my case it doesn’t cause any functionality issue. But hear me out. It’s poor engineering. First thing i noticed when i picked my new steamdeck is something rattling. I tought something was forgotten inside. Turns out it’s the ABXY buttons loose…

When i pick up my 40 euro Xbox controller everything feels solid, no rattling whatsoever. I bet PS5 controller is not rattling also.

I would expect the same from 600 euro device.

My ABXY buttons are too loose, they rattle when i move my deck.

Anyone able to meassure LCD deck action buttons diameter ?

On OLED i measure this, it’s like the buttons are too small for the shell.

I measured all buttons 8,66 - 8,72 mm, Wondering if LCD buttons are the same size.

Multiple threads about this. Seems like common issue.

Please also report to Valve so they acknoledge this and make revision ofABXY buttons.hopefully enough people raise they voice ane xoncerns to Valve.
