All stock? Did you add anything such as an LED light in the back tire?

You know what I bet it is? I'm pretty sure that there's a setting that is SUPPOSED to turn down the music when you brake (essentially because highway speeds are louder than stop and go traffic), and if you fish around in the settings screen, you'll probably be able to find it and turn it off. I could be completely wrong, though.

Pretty sure that just goes of speed and not brake pedal input.

Sounds like a bad ground to me somewhere, or an isolation diode or something - but if it's all stock that will be hard to find and I would take it in. If you have an aftermarket amplifier or something that's much easier to just poke around on.

This is a pretty common issue when wiring isn’t properly isolated or grounded.

I bet you have an aftermarket accessory that is wired into a wire harness in the rear. i.e. light bar, tow harness, amp, or something else that is causing the signal Interference that is manifesting itself as “noise” through the speakers.

Once you find the offending power wire you can simply add a ferrite core to suppress the “noise” that is in turn causing the speaker issue.

I am having the same issue with 2023 OuterBanks. Just not consistent and sometimes worse than others!
