So I think I just had the confluence of the audio pop and iBridge kernel panic. I was watching a lecture video in QuickTime when the audio popped, then cut out. I thought it was something wrong with the video until I noticed that my audio just didn't work anymore, verified by starting a video in chrome that I knew had sound. While checking that my computer crashed and rebooted with the nice your computer was restarted due to an error message with the iBridge being the problem. Up until now I have had minimal sound popping issues and the few times my computer crashed due to the iBridge problem has all been while it was sleeping. Hopefully this isn't a precursor for things to come. Has anyone else seen this behavior?
