Speaker is making crackling noise after stick replacement

Hallo!

I need some help. I replaced my two sticks after they drifted, and while putting everything back together, I thought I heard arcing. See the first video as a link.

However, I did not smell anything weird, so I investigated, and I am 99% sure it is the speaker making contact with the pins it is supposed to make contact with (video 2).

I tried cleaning all contacts, but it keeps happening.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix it?

Or is it maybe harmless?

Thanks!

This can be obvious but, ironic or not sounds like a short on the motherboard, and this makes more sense again with the information that you replaced the sticks.

Use a anti static pincel with isopropyl alcohol to clean the entire board, and take a look on the parts and components near to the audio jack/mics and speaker.

Sometimes a little piece of solder can be the problem
