I have 2.0 speakers plugged into the motherboard. (I use the motherboard's built-in soundcard) The speakers are plugged into a separate power outlet as it has it's own amp.
When my PC goes to sleep the speakers stay on (which I don't mind). As soon as the PC sleeps there is a audible hissing noise from the speakers.
I'm stumped on how to fix this issue. The only other way I could fix this was to use a separate soundcard but that is actually used somewhere else and I don't want to use it in this PC as this PC has a built in soundcard which sounds fine. I'm going to hate to spend an additional $50 for an additional sound card to get rid of the noise when the PC sleeps.
My motherboard is an Asus z170 pro gaming. I'm using Windows 10
I think it may be a grounding issue on the motherboard, but I've checked it and everything is fastened properly and it is properly installed in the case. Anybody have any ideas on what I can try?
