A loud cracking noise comes from the speakers several times during booting my Archlinux system.
I use an extern USB Audio interface “Behringer U-Phoria UM2”. The interface is connected to an USB 3 Hub, which is connected direct to the USB 2 socket of the mainboard ( Asrock A520M-itx ).
The volume of the Audio interface is turned down completely.
During the cracking, the power LED of the interface lights up.
My Archlinux is always up-to-date just like the Bios (UEFI) of my mainboard too.
I hope there is a way to eliminate this annoying clicking noise during the boot process.
I plugged my interface into another USB port without the hub, but there is still this loud cracking noise during boot.
