Sudden loud, shrill noise in Resolve Studio 17b Build18

So whenever I am playing some parts of my timeline, a short film I'm recutting with all of its sound FX and stuff on the tracks, first two or three playbacks of the shot play well, and then suddenly all sound is canceled and this shrill ear-damaging loud noise is heard. In the following clip, I've actually reduced the audio level on this noise so that anyone viewing it can be saved from ear damage but one thing is for sure, I will definitely have an impairment at this rate:

There are multiple sound effects as you can see, but two of the sound effect files have reverb effects on them, if that matters as information. Nothing unusual here. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

PS: I know this is public beta, I will simply not update next time I guess, until we're out of beta. Hahaha

Also, I noted that this ONLY happens on tracks with any reverb effect. Otherwise it does not.

The Fairlight component to Resolve is one of the buggiest (second only to Fusion) and is wrought with things that either don't work right, or not at all.

My suggestion, is that unless these effects are being timed to specific moments in the video track you'd be much better off building any complex audio track in a dedicated audio editor of your choice, and then importing that track into Resolve.

The concept of a do-it-all application handling every task is alluring and tempting, but the real-world usability is that it's best to build specialty items like this outside of Resolve, and bring them in.

Trust me on this, your workflow will be faster and have far fewer gotchas than trying to "fix" Resolves' many issues.

Thanks Robert, I think I will just have to do that. Even though this is a project I'm cutting for my reel (so there's no time constraints), it does end up taking me quite a bit of time trying to troubleshoot this. Just for this problem, I can't remove reverb from the tracks I need. So I will just use something like Audacity to accomplish the same for now.
