See if there’s a loose hair or something between the pad and the driver? I think that normally ends up producing more of a buzzing sound, but it’s possible something got lodged in between maybe

Damn, it can really happen like that? I did swap my pads not too long ago and I think it started happening after the pad swap so maybe that's it.

In that case, check to make sure all four clips are seated in properly. The Hifiman pad ring mechanism can be a giant pain in the ass when pad rolling, and can lead to anomalous sounds when even one clip is not fully secured.
