Intermittent Audio Crackling with Razer Laptop Cooling Pad and Razer Synapse 4 on Razer Blade 16 (2023)

I am experiencing intermittent audio crackling when using the Razer Laptop Cooling Pad with my Razer Blade 16 (2023). After thorough testing, I have identified the following:

  • The audio crackling occurs only when both the Razer Laptop Cooling Pad and Razer Synapse 4 are running simultaneously.

  • If Razer Synapse 4 is not running but the cooling pad is on, the crackling does not occur.

  • If Razer Synapse 4 is running but not connected to the cooling pad, the crackling does not occur.

  • Even when I select the option to disable fan control in Razer Synapse 4, the crackling still happens.

Has anyone else encountered this issue? Are there any known solutions or troubleshooting steps to resolve this problem?

I have the same problem with my Blade 16 (2025), Razer Blackshark V3Pro and the Cooling pad, it took me quite a long time to realize that it's a Problem with the Cooling Pad. I hate Razer Synapse 4, I just sent the Cooling Pad back at the end.
