Received my 1TB OLED Steam Deck today but it appears I have a faulty left trackpad haptic as the left feedback is very noisy where as the right side is silent, even with the left on the lowest haptic feedback setting of 1db and the right on a max of 12db, the left is still noisy. It’s so bad I had to disable the haptic feedback. Never had this issue on the original deck.

It’s as if the left trackpad is vibrating against the shell. Even when you pull the trigger you get a noisy audible ping sound each time it triggers the left trackpad haptic, the right side is just fine and very silent. Hope Valves RMA is quick.

    Dude I have the same thing on both my 1tb oled and same but to a lesser extent on my 512 oled. The left trigger pull is ridiculously annoying with what sounds like a mouse click after the haptics activate. Please update if you find a fix, I’m just going to get mine replaced I think…

      Thanks for posting. I have the same thing going on with LE, was about to return. But seems like I’m not the only one having this issue. I tried adjusting the haptic force on the left touch pad, but it doesn’t really change a lot.
