cannot reproduce. this sounds like an issue with your own devices, particularly if bluetooth is involved. the metronome blip is very short (like 60 milliseconds long), and some devices have a sort of "activation" threshold that requires continuous sound to be played to wake them from silence. check if this also happens with super short sound files outside of the game.
