This is my 19, 6.4. This particular episode lasted around 5 minutes. 4400 miles on the clock when this occurred.
My 16 did it too, but never this long.

That's terrible. What's your dealer doing to address this problem?

I don't post a whole bunch, really enjoy reading through the forums though. This particular topic got my blood pumping
I have a 2016 Ram 2500 6.4 Hemi w/ 4.10 rear end. All oil changes have been through the dealer along with other maintenance items. I am on my THIRD set of lifters. Each time replacing cams and all lifters. The dealership has never been able to pinpoint the specific cause of the problem.. I will be taking it in again during the August/Sept. time frame because the rattling has returned. I will have discussions with the dealer on what can be done through Ram, I don't have high expectations they will be willing to help though.
I am not towing heavy and it is a daily driver truck. I have right about 53,000 miles....... I 'm counting down the days until I can just leave this truck at the dealership and drive a Duramax home.]

Holy crap that sounds like an air compressor! Had you changed out the factory fill yet?
My 17 1500 is back in shop for loud valves and lifters. Came out of service under warranty work after 5 weeks. Now two weeks later noise is bad again and going back in. Probably looking to dump it after this extended repair. Only positive note. Chrysler Care will make 2 payments for almost what will amount to 8-10 weeks without truck. 50.000 miles on it.
Yesterday morning here on Edmonton it was -30 (-38 with windchill) and I cold started and had like 1 second of noise like that and then quiet I couldn't imagine it sounding like the white one or that 6.4l all the time. I'd be worriedMy 15 has a startup noise from time to time that sounds like what WhiteStar has posted. I've done multiple UOAs to see if there's excessive wear but there is not. Other than being annoying, it doesn't appear to have an effect.

Not the fuel grade.....detonation from low octane only occurs with engine under a load.....has nothing to do with noise at idle/startup.Is it ambient temp related? I'm in Florida and the noise has occurred anywhere from 95F to 40F. Someone mentioned it was the fuel grade which I find hard to believe. I've always used 89/mid grade as suggested by the owners manual.

I’ll say this- those with start up problems run 91/93 for 4 tanks of gas and I’ll bet it goes away. It will probably cost 20.00 to test so why the hell not, that’s a lot cheaper than a lifter failure!
