Experiencing an annoying high-pitched noise in the audio of an iMac Pro (2017) -- NOT physical noise such as a fan, etc.

This noise is present while using the Reaper DAW, which has never before presented any noise issues.

OS and all software up to date. Have removed all external gear, drives, etc., in attempting to pinpoint the source, leaving only the internal SSD drive running. The noise volume is low but constant, unaffected by any level settings.

Along with the tone is random sharp clicking, sounding much like a typewriter. WTF!?

Anyone have any ideas as to source and how to get rid of it?
