ASRock model: B650E Taichi Lite Popping audio as sound goes lower then comes back.

When playing audio (talking, music etc), sound is fine until there is a pause in the audio, then you get this loud pop. I think the system is turning off the audio when it detects no audio. then when sound in the media come back there is a pop. Is there a way to turn off this self muting system. As a test I ran a low level sound in the background, then listen to a podcast and there is no pop.

Such a nice motherboard but cannot recommend this MB do to this flaw.

any work around????

Same issue, but on non-Lite B650e Taichi.
I saw on some forums that this may be due to Nahimic and its attempts to control audio devices. I haven?™t checked it myself since most of the time I use a USB headset

I have to play a tone of 5hz very low volume in the background and this prevents the click.

Did your ever figure out a solution to this? I was researching this board before I decided to get it and ran across your post here and on toms hardware.

I ran into the same issue on a B650E Taichi and managed to fix it, here's my post from a Reddit thread:

1 Update Windows 11, make sure you have the latest Chipset drivers and BIOS installed.
2 Hop into BIOS and enable the Automatic Driver Installer.
3 Hit F10 and exit, re-enter Windows. Usually, Auto Driver Installer will pop up now.
4 Simply let it install all the latest drivers (among them Thunderbolt), reboot, and it should be fixed.

From what I've been able to google, there is a conflict between Windows 11 drivers, Thunderbolt drivers, and Realtek audio drivers, which creates the popping/crackling.

Note: some people have reported success after simply uninstalling Thunderbolt drivers via the Device Manager (if you have them).

I hope this helps!

So, after a long, long time.
The problem is still there, the following has been changed
I switched from Win10 to Win11.
I uninstalled all drivers related to Realtek, Nahimic, Thunderbolt (and Asio, Killer Network to name a few). Some of these drivers were causing bootloop when installed from the official site. Most likely it was a network card driver.
Several versions of Realtek drivers were installed from asrock site - the problem remained. After I was convinced that the problem remained I uninstalled the drivers again via Device Manager and installed the next drivers.
The problem exists also in safe mode.
The problem exists on pure Windows with no drivers at all, out of the box.
The problem exists on drivers provided by Asrock, Realtek, enthusiasts, batch driver installers (like SDI).
Just for fun, I can burn linux to a Live USB to see if the problem is the same on another OS.
My electrical knowledge suggests that the problem is checking the resistance of the speakers every time the playback device is accessed, following this logic I have found a generation of drivers that do not have a resistance scale for the port on the back panel, but this has no effect.
Still, after almost two years, I can't use the port on the motherboard to connect speakers/headphones as I get a loud pop at the beginning and end of any sound playback, as well as on the hihats.
And this is in a ~600$ motherboard

i think it is windows drivers problem.

problem with power management, applying power management.

people report to fix this by setting the power management correctly or if it refuses to accept power management features.. by playing the silent sound all the time to keep it busy
