Remote High Pitch Noise issue

I have three Roku Stream Sticks+ and all three remotes do not work and have a high pitch sound coming from them.  How could three remotes go bad a few months apart from one another??  
I have been a Roku customer for years and these sticks are not that old. 
I folowed the support items to try and fix the issue but nothing works. 

I started using the app for the remote but that does not help if I'm not home and my family wants to watch something.

Roku replaced one of my screeching remotes and it's doing it AGAIN.   This is aggravating for being a reoccurring issue.  Please replace this defective remote.

Yes, I must remove the batteries it was crazy it took me forever to figure out where that noise was coming from. I really like Roku over Amazon Fire

Re: Remote High Pitch Noise issue

This has happened to me with two different remotes. Replacing batteries doesn’t fix the problem.

Yes, I’ve gone through those steps. They didn’t work the first time so I replaced the remote. The troubleshooting steps didn't work this time, either.
