Who I have the same questioned this topic

So they rolled out a new update last week.  Installed it as fast as I could and looked up the release notes while waiting on it to finish.  Included in the release notes is this:

+ Complete calls without experiencing choppy audio, clicking noises and/or

one-way audio noises.

I took this to mean the static noise but today i was on a call and received another bit of static.  Looks like it has been greatly reduced but not solved. 

As a side note I am very happy to see a number of other buggy issues that have been fixed by this latest update.
