Assuming no damage,

...it is also possible that the rim has an extrusion defect that results in a loose spoke at the hole - when trueness is given priority over tension for that wheel.

It's very common with entry level rims intended for factory assembled bikes.

If that's the case, you can have the wheel re-worked with priority given to tension - or replace rim.
