Q: iPad mini 2 Speakers Crackling

I've had my iPad mini 2 for almost a year now, I think maybe a few months shy of a year.

I'm just starting to notice that my speakers crackle a bunch when I listen to music through an app, or the music I have on my iPad. It does it when I watch videos too. I can plug a pair of headphones in, and the crackling is like it never existed.

I've tried resetting my iPad to factory default, the problem still occurs.

iPad mini 2 Wi-Fi 16GB, iOS 8.3
