A dummy load is a resistive load a speaker is not. +
But I would check first the connection between head and cab, since it happen only with the 8 ohm cabinet I suspect the jack at cabinet to be faulty or simple it vibrates too much.
I had a 2x12 cab with a loose back panel, at high volume a good palm mute would throw the jack out of the socket

Great idea. I checked through another Mesa Cab, same prob

More testing
-two 8 ohm 4x12 cabs in parallel with amp at 4ohms. crackle.
-one 8 ohm 4x12 cab with an 8 ohm 2x12 with amp at 4 ohms. NO CRACKLE?
The 4x12 is a mesa with 4 v30s. The 2x12 is a peavey 4x12 in stereo, using only one side with sheffield something or others.
This is banana crazy now.
Anyone have any ideas?!
