edit: 2017 13 inch model, not 2013, my bad

Anyone else have this quiet popping sound occasionally coming from the right side of the keyboard (speaker?) while it's ON? Not an issue, since it's probably at worst one popping sound per hour. I'm just wondering what it is.

I don't think it's a defect either, because I just had the whole top case, logic board and screen replaced for separate issues, but it still happens.

Hi there! Yes i have this problem on a 2019 15" model. Open a video in YT or Vimeo and see if this happens just before the playback begins. Then move the cursor to various instances of the video and try to listen the pop.
