The Yalkut Maom Loaz in Yirmiyahu brings from Chazal:
A different interpretation is given by the Mincha Gedolah in Amos (7:9.) The possuk there is talking about the bammot made for avodah zarah in the land of the ten tribes. He quotes from the Alshich that the 'ש in place of the 'צ comes from the name of עשו. He explains that Yaakov is already connected to Esav via the 'ע that exists in his name and the 'ו that sometimes appears in his name. Therefore, when referring to the tribes that did the actions of עשו it adds the connection of the 'ש in the name of Yitzchak. The problem with this explanation is that it doesn't seem to explain why the possuk would switch in Tehillim and Yermiyahu.
