Arlo Pro 3 Floodlight recording audio constantly

[Djeunggolf]

I saw a similar post about this camera constantly recording audio, even when “Audio Detected” is set to OFF. Has there been any provided solution to this issue? I’ve looked everywhere for a solution, with no success.

Do you have CO/Smoke detection enabled in the smart notifications?

I’m not following. My exterior camera doesn’t have a smoke/ CO detector. How would this sort of notification cause my camera to constantly record audio? Can you elaborate so I might understand?

The CO/Smoke detector option in Arlo cameras is listening for the chirps from a nearby smoke detector.  Some have reported that enabling that feature triggers your symptoms, so it is a good thing to check before moving on to the next step (which would be a factory reset).
