Normal gut sounds is my first guess. Your body is talking to you. Listen and tAke good notes. Share with your Dr.

Yes, you are correct, such sounds reflect gas passing through the bowels and sometimes they might become embarrassing in meetings, etc due to being too loud. Keeping a log of types of food eaten/ drinks,etc and the amount of noise and gas might help identifying food, many times fermenting, that is prone of causing the problem and trying to avoid it in such situations.
