I bought a pair of AirPods Pro a few months ago and, just recently, I've started to hear a soft click, or flicking sound, in the right ear. It's a persistent sound every 4 seconds or so. Sounds like someone flicking a piece of paper.

Anyone else getting this or aware of a fix?

thanks!

Have you tried resetting them? Also what firmware version are you on?

I think I had the exact same problem with the pair I got at launch back whenever that was. Apple ended up exchanging them for a new pair, which would disconnect constantly and got replaced one 'pod at a time, which led to a third pair that had the same clicking again, which led to a fourth pair which works normally.

If resetting them doesn't work, I would highly recommend contacting Apple.
