Hi everyone! I just set up Linux Manjaro as my primary operating system and connected my PS4 controller. It functioned perfectly, but now I notice a buzzing static noise through my microphone when the volume is above 30%. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! I'm using a Lenovo Legion 5 with KDE Plasma on the most recent release. Discord is also available if you'd like to hear the sound.

You could test pulse audio to confirm the controller is detected as a microphone, then silence it in that area.

You can set up PulseAudio and add PavuControl as a dashboard, and some distributions such as Fedora already include PulseAudio by default. It’s possible on Manjaro too.
