It's on powerdown, there is a faint pop. It appears its the amp (final
part in the path), I tried to toggle it while playing /dev/zero
manually and it always pops on powerdown. On powerup there is a small
sound cutoff too, probably because of amp capacitors charging, but we
decided to leave it instead of halting every sound playing program
until the amp gets ready.
