Why does my force trackpad make a buzzing sound when two finger scrolling in iBooks?

I have an Early 2015 MacBook Pro 13" with a force touch trackpad. When I two finger scroll in iBooks, the trackpad makes a faint buzzing sound. I'm using iBooks 1.2 (825). It doesn't make this sound when two finger scrolling in Safari. I don't mean scrolling a book. I mean scrolling the collection when I'm browsing which books I have.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

No, I get the haptic feedback, like when I click the trackpad and it feels like a click. Also, if it were the haptic feedback, then I'd expect to get it when scrolling in other applications, but this is only happening in iBooks.


It might just be my trackpad, but the buzzing is very faint. I didn't notice it until my MacBook was on a desk where the vibrating echo'ed. But now that I'm aware of the sound, I can hear it anyway. I just need to put my ear very close to the trackpad. It isn't bothersome, I just wonder what it is and maybe worry that it's damaging my trackpad.

Just in case, I tried toggling the haptic feedback option as you suggested, but the sound is there either way.
