As the title says, my speakers (KALI LP6-v2 connected to my windows PC through a UMC22 usb interface) pop once when I pause or unpause a youtube video or a song file on my pc, apparently anything that makes them suddenly start/stop generate a pop.
Is that dangerous to the lifetime of the speaker? Why is that? Disabling the filters from Equalizer APO seems to not get rid of the problem.
Is this something normal?
And even if it is normal with powered monitors, it's quite annoying. There is a way to prevent this from happening?

Hi Marcus...this might be some sort of grounding problem thru all the connections. Did you ever figure it out?

Not yet unfortunately, I don't know what to try :\
Also I do "3D sculpting" on the PC, essentially you use a USB pen tablet and a program like Zbrush to digitally "sculpt clay" and make character models for videogames for example, but when the pen interact with the software, for example while using it to rotate the Camera view inside of it, the speakers pop as well, which is extremely annoying and forces me to turn them off while using that software.

That's certainly strange and something I've never heard of before.
