Frequent popping sound at startup and during YouTube videos, please help.

MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019), 2,3 GHz Intel Core i9 8 core.

Hi, my Mac makes a popping sound when I turn it on, when skipping forward/back on a Youtube video with the keyboard left and right arrows, and when I open/close a video.

It has happened since Big Sur was released.

I just downloaded 11.3 hoping to solve it, but it actually made the pop sound more frequent.

I tried everything: Resetting SNC/PRAM, reinstalling Big Sur with command-R, doing the hardware test, killing coreaudiod, but none has had any effect.

Due to the Covid situation, I can't reach the nearest Apple store.

Do you know any solution to this problem? This problem is really frustrating.
