Last year I bought my most expensive mac ever, 16'' with 1TB SSD, 64 GB RAM, Intel Core i9 2,4 GHz, AMD Radeon Pro 5500M.
Sound Problems
My problems first started while running simulator on Catalina, I have a daily meeting in Google Meet so when I left the simulator on I got the most disgusting popping sounds while my colleagues were talking (I do think that if I leave it it will **** out the speakers if they are not already).
Ok simple fix, quit the simulator and restart the audio, I even did a Automator app for it. But now with big sur I am angry, the problem doesn't go away with a simple restart you need to wait ~5 minutes after closing the simulator (I am not even sure if it is connected to the simulator anymore). This means that I cannot use my Macbook for the DS, I join from my iPhone and use it for just viewing. My AirPods 2 aren't working of course while using it's microphone on the mac, it works on the iPhone. Btw I tried using wired headphones, the popping persists.
Once I tried to do a screen recording of an app on the device through QuickTime while listening to music, the popping was even worse! Do not try it!
Overheating Problems
When connected to a second monitor the fans start turning like crazy and I actually cannot keep my finger above the touch bar because of the heat. First I tried to lift the Macbook from the desk using a cardboard box, didn't help so I stopped using my not expensive monitor ...
Conclusion
I am a mac user for the past 8 years. This Macbook is my most expensive and worst experience with an apple product. Cannot use the AirPods on it (works on everything except macs), cannot use a monitor for it (except a small iPad, maybe), the sound on this one is great when it works, but it usually doesn't. I am very disappointed in Apple and I am not sure if I would continue to be one of their "pro" users, but I hope that at least the sound problems would get resolved ASAP!

Version 11.1 of Big Sur fixed the popping sound problem for me.
Dear Developer,
We identified one or more issues with a recent delivery for your app, {the app}. Please correct the following issues, then upload again.
ITMS-90000: This bundle is invalid - $message.
Best regards,
The App Store Team Submitted an hour ago and just uploaded a new one.
Rebuilding and uploading again worked for me. Maybe the problem is resolved?
Running validate-app gave me a proper error and I was able to resolve my issue.
xcrun altool --validate-app --type ios --file {IPA_PATH} --username "{APPLE_ID}" --password "{PASSWORD}"
** Error: Validation failed for '{IPA_PATH}'.
*** Error: No suitable application records were found. Verify your bundle identifier ‘{BUNDLE_ID}’ is correct. App Store operation failed. (-19000)
The issue in my case was that the uploader account didn't have access to our new Apple Developer Account. Hope this helps you too!
PS: In my original question I posted the wrong type it should have been ios and not tvos. The output is the same though.
