so i believe i recall this problem with other distros, i’ve been using opensuse for a few months, quite nice!
anyways mozilla frustrated me because upon every close it would report a crash if not crashing on it’s on. so if somebody has a solution to that i would accept it! haha
But the issue i am posting about is with Google Chrome, which i have taken a liking to. when it’s open it seems to force a click type noise from the speaker, like if you touched the end of an aux cable plugged in. it’s almost perfectly timed which is strange, sometimes it slows but i would say every 5 seconds on avg.
hopefully somebody has experienced this, i found a thread from 2009 or so on google from the opensuse forums, it was reported solved, which it wasn’t in the messaging.
Thanks! Spencer.
PS - I am not what would be considered a true linux user, i only use terminal if im googling something or somebody tells me the code. so simple terms are appreciated

I have heard this myself
But as 99% of the time I have sound muted, I never really notice it.
At least, if it was there I didn’t hear it. I noticed it last week though.
I just closed the browser, which IIRC was playing bbc news or iplayer prog.
Try the chrome forum https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/chrome
I was with a friend who uses Chrome on Windows 7 and now recall hearing such a noise. Did not realy bother or ask (after all when you start bothering about eveyone who uses Windows, you will have no sleep anymore). But this then makes it a Chrome “feature” IMHO. And thus looking ito Chrome’s configuration possibilities (or asking in a forum as caf4962 suggests) seems to be the wway for me.

Heard it too lately, on Ubuntu and Win7, same machine. And I remember hearing this, but at the time I didn’t relate it to Chrome, but to my laptop’s degrading condition.
