Default odd buzzer noise coming from dash

Has happened 3 times so far over the last 4 days. I get in and start the car like normal. Immediately a loud buzzer goes off under the dash for about 3-5 seconds. I guess it sounds like a speaker going bad, possibly the tweeter? It sounded like it was coming more from around the HUD trim plate than the tweeter though.

Are there any climate control actuators in that area?

Does it only do it when you start the car...not just on accessories? To see if it is the tweeter, without having to pull the door panel to disconnect it, try covering it with some padding, and see if the sound changes.

It hasn't done it since. I wasn't using just the accessories at the time, I was just starting the car, so I dont know if it would have happened with just the accessories.

finally narrowed it down to the tweeter. it happens as soon as I turn the radio on. I recently had the door panel off and something might have gotten bumped. The tweeter appears to be working normally after the buzzing.
