Every time I have a death knight in my group I hear a popping sound in my speaker. It only occurs when a deathknight is present and it occurs at such a regular interval that I am fairly certain it relates to a sound file of an ability or buff that comes up in rotation about ever 20 seconds. I cannot recreate this on my deathknight.
When I first saw this bug on the forums after pre-patch my first thought was that the sound file for bloodworms was bugged and creating that loud pop people report rather than it’s usual soft bursting sound. But typically during combat these things are bursting about every 15sec.
Your auto attacks have a chance to summon a Bloodworm.
Bloodworms deal minor damage to your target for 15 sec and then burst

I guess you’d have to test with a deathknight and see if the popping noise happens without bloodworms around or if it happens when the bloodworms are bursting. Total shot in the dark of course, it could just be a bug related to something else entirely with DKs. Best of luck.
I play Frost DK and I get the sound as well in combat. I don’t think it’s tied to a specific ability.

I play unholy and hear this as well and only happens in combat. It’s not tied to a skill from what I can tell and it doesn’t happen when gaining or losing a specific buff either. What I do know is this only happens on my DK and all three specs.

Been leveling unholy and having the same issue, honestly thought my headphones were already having problems. Only happens in combat, very randomly. Sometimes it happens 5 times in 15 seconds, and sometimes it barely happens, maybe once in a minute.
