@Guyfromunion 

That's not good.

Let's try something. We're troubleshooting now, not exactly fixing. Just trying to figure out the cause. Then the fix.

Force an update from Settings > System > Update ...

Then do a restart. Settings > System > Restart ...

If it continues, check the power settings, if your device has that (not all do). Settings > System > Power ...

If it's still happening, unplug, then remove the HDMI cable from the Roku, then power up. No, you won't be able to see anything, but does the buzzing still happen?

Let us know the results of these tests.

I have updated the Roku ultra and unchecked the box saying after 20 minutes of no interaction. I have restarted. I will have to wait until it does it again.

the sound is coming from the tv speakers not from the Roku box

Try a different HDMI port. Does the issue follow to the new port?

I am an integrator and have multiple ones showing this same issue. Some connected through an AVR some directly to tv. All settings updated. High quality hdmi cables input makes no difference.
