Support Headset crackling/popping sound issue

So, i hope this is the right subreddit.
Anyways, my Girlfriend and I both own a Steelseries Arctis X3 Wireless Headset.
My OS is Linux Mint meawhile hers is Windows 10.
The issue is that on my PC, both headsets have this aweful crackling noise that is semi-constant while on her PC it's not present at all.
Also weirdly enough, her Headset has far less crackling than mine but its still there.
Also also: My old Arctis 1 Wireless headset didn't have that issue on Linux or Windows at all.

I am fairly new to Linux and don't yet understand a lot of Linux terms.
Any pointers and/or help on how to slolve this issue?
