I have the exact same sound coming from my printer after having upgraded to the mk3s two days ago. I feel like it's the steel ball also but can't be sure.

Yeah it's the steel ball. Drove me nuts for a while, since I did the igus bearings, and Sorbothane feet upgrades to make the quietest printer possible, and yet there is this rattle. Now I don't really hear it, not that it's gone, I just got over stressing about it. Since I don't think there is really much I can do about it (short of just disabling the filament sensor and remove the ball).
