The clicking does not happen if I use same audio encoded at higher
bitrate:

user@devuan-droid4:/my/unicsy_demo/tones$ paplay /tmp/ALARM-big.wav
user@devuan-droid4:/my/unicsy_demo/tones$ aplay /tmp/ALARM-big.wav
Playing WAVE '/tmp/ALARM-big.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate
44100 Hz, Stereo
user@devuan-droid4:/my/unicsy_demo/tones$ aplay
/my/unicsy_demo/tones/ALARM.wav
Playing WAVE '/my/unicsy_demo/tones/ALARM.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little
Endian, Rate 4000 Hz, Stereo
user@devuan-droid4:/my/unicsy_demo/tones$ paplay
/my/unicsy_demo/tones/ALARM.wav
user@devuan-droid4:/my/unicsy_demo/tones$

ALARM.wav clicks, ALARM-big.wav does not.
