I have a PC with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS dual booting with Windows 10. After a fresh install of ubuntu I notice a random popping sound (very small but it's there) from my speaker (edifier r1280dbs).

It seems to happen whenever I open heavy apps (like microsoft teams), or when I login/logout of the system. But it can happen randomly too. I've searched intensively and most of the results I found say that the problem is in the power saving option of the sound card. I've follow the solutions here but none's working. Annoying click/popping sound on Ubuntu 20.04 Please help me solve this problem. Thank you!

This answer worked for me.

  1. Backup the existing PuseAudio config file: sudo cp /etc/pulse/default.pa /etc/pulse/default.bak
  2. Edit the config file: gedit admin:///etc/pulse/default.pa
  3. Hash out the entry load-module module-suspend-on-idle: #load-module module-suspend-on-idle
  4. Save and close the config file
  5. Restart PluseAudio: systemctl restart --user pulseaudio
