Google road bike disc brake rubbing etc. It’s “normal”.
Its only normal if your brakes arent adjusted properly or your rotor is out of true or un-evenly torqued (if 6-bolt).
Also might be an issue caused by alignment issues between caliper and frame mounting points/adaptors, which can all be faced with the proper tools.
You can also add conical washers to the whole arrangement to further dial in the angle of the caliper should the pinging persist.

I ride my cx bike as a road bike for about 1/3 of the year (the winter/spring) and its exactly as quiet as any caliper-braked bike I own.
