Fixing Cracking and Popping Sound on my Mac
Hi everyone, I think I solved my problem of cracking and popping sounds. I have a MacBook Pro 16 M1 - 16 Go RAM (sorry in advance for my english : I'm French :-D 1— Everything was working fine with the sound when the MBpro M1 was running the factory version of MacOS. As soon as I made an update to Monterey, BOOM ! The cracking and popping sounds started. I think I try everything described on the internet and nothing solved it really. 2— I try a last thing : starting the Mac without any extensions. The problems with the sound were suddenly gone. So I figured out the problem could be an app running on my Mac. 3— So I started my Mac on normal mode to desactivate manually a few things running in the background. I found that the app Magnet (an non-Apple app I used to organize my windows) could be a troublemaker because the sound problem was not as intense as before suddenly. 4— On that basis, I did an experiment with each software I have : I put music from YouTube in Sa

Crackling/Popping sound when using AVAudioUnitTimePitch
I have a simple AVAudioEngine graph as follows: AVAudioPlayerNode -> AVAudioUnitEQ -> AVAudioUnitTimePitch -> AVAudioUnitReverb -> Main mixer node of AVAudioEngine. I noticed that whenever I have AVAudioUnitTimePitch or AVAudioUnitVarispeed in the graph, I noticed a very distinct crackling/popping sound in my Airpods Pro 2 when starting up the engine and playing the AVAudioPlayerNode and unable to find the reason why this is happening. When I remove the node, the crackling completely goes away. How do I fix this problem since i need the user to be able to control the pitch and rate of the audio during playback. import AVKit @Observable @MainActor class AudioEngineManager { nonisolated private let engine = AVAudioEngine() private let playerNode = AVAudioPlayerNode() private let reverb = AVAudioUnitReverb() private let pitch = AVAudioUnitTimePitch() private let eq = AVAudioUnitEQ(numberOfBands: 10) private var audioFile: AVAudioFile? private var fadePlayPauseTask: Task? private var

Popping sound when running XCode simulator
Hello, im getting popping / crackling sounds from my Macbook Pro (M4 2024) speakers. This happens when you do many certain tasks like click buttons or toggling switches when xcode has a simulator open and any background audio is playing, like spotify. The speakers go crazy especially when starting the simulator in xcode with music in background. Ive tried: Using blackhole, and changing audio output in the simulator app Deleting both .plist files form preferences file. coreaudiod trick in terminal restarting many times different xcode versions and simulators and swift files Nothing has worked. Any help?

2016 MacBook Pro popping sounds
I got a second-hand have MacBook Pro and sometimes when I run apps the Mac will start popping every 10-30 minutes. I'm not sure if this is something that happens normally because this is an intel MacBook. If someone knows the answer to my question then please respond Thanks!

New MacBook 2021 memory leak from display settings and popping sound issue
I just got a new 16'' 2021 MBP with 16GB ram and 1tb ssd. I've been testing it for a week and I noticed a couple of issues, the 1st one is a annoying popping sound issue from time to time while watching youtube, also I noticed in Activity Monitor the 'WindowsServer' process taking up to 20GB of memory just by opening a few youtube tabs and watching them , I've been restarting the machine for days trying to fix the issue. today I opened the Display settings and changed the Presets from Apple XDR Display (P3-1600 nits) to Apple display (P3-500 nits) and I also changed the refresh rate from ProMotion to 60Herts. with this downgraded setting the WindowsServer process is only taking 290MB. why have apple added this new displays features causing memory leak. this is an expensive machine and shouldn't be worried about such things.

Reply to Crackling audio w aggregate device after Monterey upgrade
You are not alone. This thread about the Crackling/Popping from 2 years ago: How to Fix Cracking and Popping Sound ?. Also in the Apple Community Forums: Macbook Pro M1 16 inch popping audio. All indicates it is a software issue and Apple Support can't do anything about it. I suggest everyone reading this submit a bug report so that sometime in the next decade they will care to fix this massively annoying problem. Bug report page: Feedback - Apple.

Reply to Cracking and Popping Sound on Macbook pro 16 inch m1 pro
I'd like to announce that I can consistently reproduce the issue on demand. When you open Audio MIDI Setup app, select the speaker you're currently listening to, then change the format from 2ch 32bit float to 16bit integer. At this point the audio will sound terrible. Wait a second and select 2ch 32bit. Notice that probably half a second after the selection is made, and the audio changes you'll hear a popping sound. This is the exact same popping sound I've been hearing randomly. Caveat: It will pop about 90% of the time. On rare occasions it doesn't. I'm not sure how this can be further diagnosed without digging into the driver. I'll look into this more in the future but for now at least we know how to reproduce it consistently and on demand.

Speakers making popping sound on new MBP 16 M3Pro
I was watching a video when I noticed a periodical popping sound. Thought it was a problem with the video, but the issue persists on all other videos or sound tracks. Gets very annoying! Quite disappointed to find this flaw in a brand new Mac Book Pro.

Reply to Audio Driver kit Read opration Sync Error。
Hi, I think It all about priority, AudioDriverKit's Priority is 63, But System default driver's Priority is 97. So Click and Pop sound is normal in Audio driver kit.
