My hubby said it might have a clog in the vent maybe in the trap. You might want to try a drain cleaner that is safe to use in the toilet not all are.

I had this happen to me a long time ago and a plumber friend of mine said it was because the toilet was leaking somewhere, so I would check that out.

I think air in the pipes will make sounds when the water is turned on.

Oh Dear! I don't have any practical suggestions. I just thought it sounded quite surreal and funny. Fancy having a trumpet solo played to you whenever you sat on the toilet!
