• Beeping bug reported with Surface Dial on Surface Book

    If you own a Microsoft Surface Book, and you’ve been thinking about buying a new Surface Dial, be aware that at least two people have reported “beep” bugs.

    On the Microsoft Answers forum, Paulruswalrus says:

    I just received a Surface Dial and was disappointed to find out that whenever I try to use the scroll function, it causes my Surface Book to beep non-stop.  It sounds like a keyboard buffer overflow-type beeping.

    Poster dmd0822 gives more details:

    I see it in any app with scrolling, Edge. Grove, News. Doesn’t do it when working on volume control. It also doesn’t do it in the Sketchable app when working with the radial menues

    I haven’t seen other reports of incompatibilities… yet.
