Buggy sound?

Del

Hello!
When i play a video on youtube in browser the sound stops and it plays a random buzz. I don't know how to describe it other than the sound made by shaking a microphone. It had happened soemtimes since august 2024 and i did not pay much attention to it because i cant reproduce this bug or record it. It happened when i opened sites like youtube, invidious and the rss reader app. And today the shakig/crushing sound was played twice within the same video. This never happened before. I factory restored the phone a couple times. Last factory reset was a week ago and this buggy sound apears regardless of how many times i reset the phone. Auto restarting the phone daily did not prevent the reappartion of the bugg sound (1 hour of inactivity).
What should i do to fix it? Send it to a phone repair workshop?

Del i had few issues with playing video sound as well. Some sites made the speaker go "pop" few times when playing the video. As far as i remember it happened when i did interact with the website while it was playing, but i can be wrong.

Del I installed google play services now on a sencondary profile and I heard a "beep" while pressing the reading mode on an article from arstehnica. I never heard the "beep" 3 times in a single day before! Does anyone elese know why could the phone make "beep" sounds for no reason?!

I think I have a similar issue. Sometimes, when I'm playing some sort of audio from the phone (usually from NewPipe), the speaker makes a strange sound as the one described by Del, like a buzz.

For me, it happens regardless of the media source, but it occurs rarely. The last time was today and before that it happened about two months ago. I initially thought it was a hardware problem, but that might not be the case. I have no idea whether it also occurs on stock Android because it's hard to reproduce.

Glad i am not the only one. I had used the stock pixel for a couple weeks and the pop/buzz/bug sound never played tho

I also have this pop sound when video is played in the Browser. Didn't happen on Stock Android as much as I remember.

It doesn't happen when Video is played in Apps.

Even when sound for Websites is muted, the pop appears as long as a video plays in the browser.

I think somehow the browsers audio is dominant over all other sound sources, so it interferes with the audio when video or video ads are played. For example if you have a music player running and at the same time use the browser, the pop sound appear.

It didn't help using different browsers like Brave or Google.

My phone is a Pixel 9.

MineralWater same. The sound can be turned off, but it still "pops".

The google ai said this happens after long periods of silence because starting "audio ducking" on ads and youtube is an intensive task and it might make a "chirp" sound.

Ty for the replies! I will mark this post as solved(if i can). If someone has a different explantion you can comment! I will chek for a fixing too.
