I Phone XS Max Speaker Damaged?

I have experienced an issue with my IPhone XS Max that is really annoying me. For some reason when I watch ads or play certain games the bottom speaker seems makes a distorted, loud crackled sound. This doesn’t happen all the time, but sometimes it randomly does it and I have no idea why. Another speaker issue I have noticed is that every once in a while, my phone makes a popping sound that is loud and very noticeable. I don’t know if this is a common issue with the phone, or if the speaker in the phone is damaged. I wonder if I am the only one, does anyone know what causes this or how to fix it?

iPhone XS Max, iOS 13

It would be advisable to schedule an appointment at your Apple Store Genius Bar for evaluation and options. This is not normal behavior.
