Default A/C making prominent bubbling/gurgling noise

Getting an annoying gurgling noise when using AC. Typically occurs after 10-15mins of driving, but may also be present immediately after starting engine and turning on AC.

Here is a clip of the sound: https://streamable.com/bj333
Here is a clip of the sound that occurs after the engine is turned off: https://streamable.com/voqd4

Showed to the dealership, they heard it in person too, and they have claimed it is normal and wouldn't do anything beyond an AC recharge.

Any advice on how I can solve this issue?

Mine is not doing this at all so can't say that's "normal" I would go back to the dealer and force your concern on the Service Manager / GM.
