it still functions. the 'noise' portion was for the effect of the title... there was no noise when you pressed it previous to the issue I am experiencing now. The real issue seems like the click is plastic sounding (as opposed to electronic) like something may have shifted underneath, if that makes sense. It is difficult to press down (as opposed to the ease of use prior) due to whatever may be 'obstructing' the path of the button. and, it does change in the intensity of the difficulty to depress the button - without any previous operation - i.e. one time it will be hard to press with a more prominent click and the next it will be less, then go back to difficult. it wasn't consistent before - it would go back to being smooth and noiseless - but the last two days it has been happening each time.
