I was wondering if anyone else gets random static noise in their headphones from time to time. It can start if I hold down on the screen to select something, or if I drag and pull on something like Twitter to refresh. Sometimes it even happens when I enter a text field like on MacRumors.

And then when I leave the app it change to a different page it stops making the sound. Also, using BT if that matters.

A few days ago I was at the Gym and just as I was finishing up a set of bench presses the music, which I listen to during every workout, became intertwined with some odd static. I was using a fitness app (Strong) to keep up with my timing. I had to unplug my headphones and plug them back in to get it to go away. Hasn't happened again.

I get the same issues with my bluetooth headphones. It used to be that any time I touched the screen with Facebook open it would start up. It does it still but not always the same app.
