Coil Whine through headphone jack after suspend (linux)

I purchased a Dell XPS 13 9360 (the new model). Overall, while clearly audible, I can live with the coil whine from the laptop. However, when I plug in my headphones, I can very clearly hear the coil whine over music while it is playing.

When I first boot my laptop, there is only a small amount of clicking through the headphones. The issue seems to only occur after suspending the laptop for the first time, and can only be fixed by rebooting.

I am running Fedora 26 with all of the updates applied as of writing, and I have followed the instructions on https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dell_XPS_13_(9360)#Continuous_hissing_sound_with_headphones . Any ideas?

It seems that even when I mute the sound, I can hear the coil whine. It is quite loud. Any ideas?

I'm having the same issue on Solus after suspending the laptop, except I'm hearing it through the speakers as well. When I plug in headphones, the sound stops through the speakers. I'm sure its a software issue, as it doesn't occur in windows.
