Default Interior rattles?

So I have some road resurfacing happening near my home which I've been driving through recently. One thing that I've begun hearing is a rattle that sounds like it's coming from the centre speaker area on my dash. I have the ML system so not sure if the standard audio package has this speaker. I'm not 100% that it coming from the speaker but it's somewhere towards the centre of my dash. Anyone else experienced this?

New one to me. Several reports of squeaks/rattles on the center console near the gear shift. But nothing up in that area. That may be a bear to trace and may take someone else riding in the car with you with their head up near the windshield to pinpoint where it is truly coming from. Hope you can find it. Little things like that drive me crazy!

IS3F, did you end up remedying this? After 7 months of ownership, this is my first rattle and I too believe it might be from the centre channel speaker. Note, I have ML audio. I've tried holding and pressing various panels near the centre speaker and the grille itself but can't stop the buzzing. Once I shut off the music, it stops instantly.
