Apple Music Momentary "crackling" when I start my first Apple Music track of the day

[swandy]

Hi. When I play music through the Apple Music app on my M1 iMac, in the first few seconds of the first track I play, there is this pretty annoying crackling. It is only for a few seconds and only on the first track I play after opening the Music app, but still strange as it happens nearly every time. Anyone else have this issue? Thanks

Mine will sometimes make an electrical beep or sound when I start playing a downloaded lossless track. I spoke with Apple and they’re aware of the issue and it will likely be fixed in the version of Music released with Monterey.

Thanks for the info.
