Yes, it is quite common. This is the fuel system priming itself, ie building up pressure in the system so it can inject fuel into the cylinder. It could be that your old pump was wearing down and so didn't make any noise, but more likely that you are now looking for noises from that area and the pump has always done this.

Has it always been like this or not? If it is, then it is not really a problem. It is how the stereo was installed. An stereo can be installed to be turned on whether the engine is on or off. If the stereo cannot be turned off at all, then you have a problem with your stereo.
