Heat pump noisy - normal?

Heat pump noisy - normal?

We're dealing with the first round of truly hot / humid weather since owning our 2026 Limited XT. I noticed when the vehicle was starting up that there was a buzzing from under the hood. It wasn't very noticeable from inside the cabin, but was definitely louder than a normal car AC (or even my Ioniq's heat pump) when standing outside the vehicle.

Popping the hood, it was coming from this device, with the most vibration being felt at the piece closest to the front of the vehicle: https://i.imgur.com/K1iYHX8.jpeg

I'm 99% sure this is the heat pump (half felt hot, half felt cold).

Does anyone else have a somewhat noisy heat pump in their vehicle?
