This forum really needs an "Outer Space" category.

Does the Earth make a sound? Yes! and it's very eerie! The European Space Agency (ESA) recently released 5 minutes of haunting, crackling audio. Revealing what Earth's magnetic field sounds like. Called the Magnetosphere, it is generated deep within the Earth's interior, at its core. It extends out into space, creating a strong protective shield against things such as charged particles zipping out of the Sun, called the solar wind. And Without this powerful magnetic field, Earth would likely be a barren, cold, dry world. The audio clip you are about to experience might sound like the stuff of nightmares, but sit back, relax and listen to the strange creaking, crackling and rumbling of our planet's protective shield. This is the sound of the Earth's magnetic field.

Sound like a volcano erupting requires AIR for the sound waves to propagate. There is no air at that altitude.

The magnetosphere “sounds” are more like RMF radio waves i.e. frequencies, not “sound” waves per se.

I thought that volcanoes creates those types of radio waves, as well as other sounds that us mere humans cannot hear.

Okay I found this in a google search about the sounds volcanoes emit:

Do volcanoes release electromagnetic waves?

During and following eruptions, dramatic EM signals can result from electric charge generation from rock disintegration, lightning within the eruption ash cloud, magnetohydrodynamic effects, thermal remagnetization, stress driven magnetization changes, and coupled TIDs.

Previous studies of lightning in volcanic eruptions using VHF antennas have detected a source of VHF radiation that is distinct from lightning and is associated with the explosive ejection of ash (Behnke et al., 2012, 2013, 2014; Thomas et al., 2007, 2010)
