Afternoon, i just replaced light switch with click vpsv140 dimmer switch alongside megaman led 40W bulb.

If i have the switch midway, bulb flickers and i can hear electrical buz. Tugg test, cables secure so its not a loose connection.

Switch all the way up/down perfectly fine. No noise whatsoever. Is this normal?

Connection not being made or unmade completely.
 
make sure the dimmer has a min. load < 5watts.
 
You will have to replace either the dimer or the lamp with another brand, they are clearly not compatible, not so much a fault just an incompatibility.
