[SOLVED] USB Speakers Static

[spanolo]

So, I bought new, basic USB speakers for my dad's desktop... The problem is they don't have on/off switch, only volume wheel in cable, and when he turns the pc off, speakers produce static...

Is this problem with the speakers, some interference maybe, or something else...

It may also be the USB port they are in provides power to them all the time even with the PC off, there are options in the BIOS to turn that off.

Well, it seems usb power related option doesn't exist in the BIOS or I'm missing something. Mobo is Asus Prime A320-K.

Also, when not playing anything, you can hear a bit of "humming" from the speakers, but that is not quite a problem. I just wonder if this is normal thing for this kind of speakers.

Yes cheaper speakers that are always on can have a low level noise or buzz on them.

I found USB power option in BIOS, turned it off and speakers are off also now.

Thanks very much,
