Wierd electronic 'buzzing' sound

Recently updated to Windows 10, (previously had 8.1) whilst everything else seems better or no different at all, I am having a few niggles with the BBC iplayer.
I keep getting an electronic sounding buzzing sound here and there- it's hard to explain- the screen does not freeze or pause or buffer, the sound follows the programmes fine but every now and then the voices distort to a sort of 'buzz' as if it's crashed (though it has not crashed).
It's not a big deal but it is annoying; it happens at least once every minute. Has anyone any idea if this is fixable and what to try? I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no effect and have checked all updates are up to date. I've also sent the BBC iplayer people a message in case it was a glitch they were able to fix.

my W10 trial lappy has randomly destroyed the sound drivers, had to uninstall and reinstall them several times so far, try that......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple0
