charging on Macbook pro 2020

When I shut down my MacBook and close it, it usually gives a sound when you start charging, but now every time I shut down, close my MacBook and plug my charging chord, the sound doesn't come up unless I open my MacBook and log in my account, then it will start charging. This problem showed up just after I updated to Bigsur. Should I be worried? Any tips on what I should do? and is there another way to know if my mac is charging when shut down other than the sound? Since the new charger doesn't have the green/orange light. I also have refreshed my SMC (since a lot of websites suggested it) but nothing changed.

Thank you :)

I would recommend that you try a PRAM reset. Here's an article on how to do it:

Hi, thank you for answering. I‘ve tried following the steps in the article and the one that works for me was pressing D when starting up. But then it ask me to connect to wifi and after i did that, nothing’s changed. The screen stays like in the picture. After waiting the screen turns into the next picture. Any idea on what should i do? Thankss :‘))
