Topic: UCX II clicks and pops

Recently got the UCX II and am totally blown away by the sound. However, I seem to be getting lots of sporadic clicks and pops. They are happening when watching youtube in chrome, streaming music in Tidal, and during playback in Ableton Live 11. I have never experienced these issues with my previous much lower tier cards on this system so hoping its a simple fix. Here are my system specs:

Windows 10 Pro
Ryzen 9 5900x
48 GB 3600 CL16 Gskill Trident Z Ram
Nvidia RTX 3070 GPU
Aorus x570 mobo latest bios

A quick google search suggests it may be the Nvidia graphics card. I am hoping not, as I very much like this card. Any suggestions/advice? Thanks in advance!
