Hi,

I have a Lenovo ThinkCentre with Linux Mint that I use to play music. Sometimes, when there's supposed to be silence (because YouTube paused the video or something), this weird popping noise appears. It disappears whenever there's music playing and even when I open the sound settings, but re-appears whenever there's silence. The device is connected via aux cable to an amplifier. This happens on two separate devices.

I don't know if it's a Lenovo issue or a linux issue, but it's quite annoying.

Your video isn’t loading for me

It's just a black screen with sound, if that's the issue. It's just rhythmic popping, almost like a heart beat.

Is there anything electric near the cable that connects the amp and computer?

I don't think so.

By two separate devices do you mean different amps or different computers?

Both. Similar computers, different cords, amps, even buildings.
