When the speaker are directly connected to a USB-C port on the MacBook everything works fine.
When it is connecter on a docking (I have tried 2 different docking) the speaker reboots itself every time I hit the volume up ou down button on the MacBook.
I made 2 firmware updates on the Pebble speaker and the issue remains.
The same setup connected to my Windows laptop works just fine.
MacBook Air (M1, 2020)
It seems that it is a power issue. Connected on a USB-A port on some actions the speaker reboot itself. On a true USB-C port I did not experience the problem at all.
The fix is to not use the included USB-A adapter. Connect the speaker directly in a USB-C port on your computer.
If using a docking station, make sure that it provide enough power through its USB-C ports.

Hi there!
Since this unexpected behavior involves a product not made by Apple, the best source of help is the company or person who made it—its vendor or developer.
Contact a third-party vendor - Apple Support

I ended up connecting the speakers via the audio jack and powering them via a USB power adapter.

Hey, Mahesh!
Never did find a solution, and Pebble support wasn't much help. I ended up returning them and getting the Logitech Z207 instead. Something about the way the Pebble is set up just doesn't let it play well with a dock setup.
Hope you have better luck than I did!

Hi there,
Just dropping by because I have the exact same issue. I just emailed Creative and waiting for their fix/response.
Any luck getting it to work without issues?
