Default Popping Noise

i was wondering do you guys with a GS4 hear a popping noise when you pull to reverse first thing in the morning after your car is warmed up. it happens when you shift to reverse and the tranny gets into gear and POP.

the sound comes from the saftey solinoid bbetween the brakes and the auto trans. ie that gizmo that wont let you shift until you put on the brake. the reason you here it after the car is warmed up is because the car is so quiet you can hear a pin drop.
