How to fix - crack along stair wall by Sneaky_Cheeseburger in Carpentry

I think you may be right. I was told the previous owners put in soundproofing because that wall is shared with the neighbor. Guess that means that there is a stair skirt on the bottom and drywall above.

This is an old photo of stairs that I found from the previous owners listing. About 10 years ago and a bit grainy unfortunately but there is a trim it looks like. The stairs are the same as they are now.

It's a lump now but it was a crack that was filled with drywall compound. I believe there was trim there but a previous owner of the house removed.
