Hi,
I noticed some strange behaviors when I charge my MacBook Air M3.
First when I used a third party 44W USB-C Charger and the MagSafe cable, everything works fine
until the MBA is fully charged, then the trackpad got very laggy and jumpy.
I then switched to an official 96W charger and haven't noticed it since.
But today I noticed a new thing.
When I charge my MBA via ana USB-C Port and connected my audio interface via the other,
my monitor speakers started to crackle.
I suspected a broken cable or even the internal amplifiers on my speakers.
I changed everything from cables over USB-A -> USB-C converter and finally
I swapped my speakers, but the crackles stayed on the "left" one.
As last resort, I connected the MagSafe cable, powered and connected my "dock" to the same USB-C Port I used before (now charging via MagSafe) and left the audio interface on the second one.
And the crackles are gone.
Did anyone else noticed something similar?
As if the USB-C ports aren't shielded enough .
cheers
