    Hi Madking1,

    Thank you for posting here in the Roku Community!

    We'd love to take a closer look into this issue that you're having with the Roku TV. Can you please provide the following information below?

    • When did the issue start?
    • Can you please provide the serial number of your Roku TV?
    • Do you have an external device like a speaker that is connected to the back of your TV?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far?

    We'll wait for your response.

    Thanks,

    I have updated with latest software. I have done factory reset, network reset, system reset. Have unplugged and plugged in again. The noise occurs on black screen either when a app is loading on on a movie or tv show with a true black screen  

    I can record a video of the sound if that helps. 

    edit: I have a Roku soundbar connected but sound comes from tv. Unplugged soundbar and it’s not the  soundbar.
