I am using Microsoft Edge on my MacBook Pro 2021 model with M1 Pro CPU. I found that one i opened too many tabs which could potentially make sound (e.g. an ended Google meet tabs, a youtube tab that's not playing) or tabs that actually making sound, then the speaker on the computer would create cracking and popping sound frequently (e.g. once every half min)
For now, when this happens, i would just close a bunch of tabs on Edge, then the cracking sound would be gone.
Is there anyone experienced the same?

Hello dpotterEP,
I apologize for the delayed response. Thanks for testing with your extensions disabled. I'd like you to submit feedback about this issue so our engineers can investigate.

I have done some extensive testing and it seems it's still the case even if i removed all the extensions, or just using 1-2 extensions.
Thanks for clarifying that this happens regardless if there's audio playing from the browser or not. It's possible this is caused by a misbehaving extension. If you don't mind please open a New InPrivate Browser window and test if it's occurring there too. To do this click on the ellipsis(...) top right > Select New InPrivate Window.
