I had the same problem with several CO detectors.  I finally found a 
brand that did not have the problem from Kidde.  The model number is 
KN-COB-B but it is a CO detector not a smoke detector.

Why?
 There is a small opening to detect smoke. Simply shielding the 
remaining unit certainly doesn't void
any "warranty". It may or may not be the solution but certainly a try.
 I never heard of this. Usually a chirp is indicative of weak battery, 
not RF related.
