The crackling sound is the opening of the Eustachian tube. This is a normal phenomenon which occurs while chewing, swallowing and when u forcefully blow air with closed mouth and nose. If u have feeling of hearing ur own voice when speaking then that could be a condition called Patulous eustachian tube. It should be evaluated.
