Asus ROG X470 Crosshair VII Hero audio issue

Nefasto
Level 7
Hi, I just bought an Asus ROG motherboard for my Ryzen 7 2700x. Immediately, without ever entering the bios, as soon as everything is mounted, I notice an annoying "popping" audio before any sound, especially in the low frequencies. I noticed that I am not the only one to have this problem and many have associated it with the drivers of the integrated sound card and the Asus software. I have uninstalled the software and deactivated the sound card integrated by bios. I tried the MixAmp pro of the Astro headphones, then an external USB card but the audio problem remains the same. I tried these Astro A40s on a friend's computer and they sound great, with no audio problem. I then tried the Corsair VoidPro Wirless headphones, and even here the popping audio problem appears, whereas if it is connected to a friend's PC there is not.
I tried turning off all the window sound enhancements, then tried to lower the sound quality, nothing worked.
I tried disabling any form of OC from bios, removed and put the XMP, nothing seems to cause this problem.

Maybe know how to solve?
