Yeah, it happens with other players. Although to be empirical I suppose
when I get home I should see which players.

No. That's not it. I've attached 3 pairs of speakers to it and it's always
the same thing. Plus you can hear like hard drive noise coming through.
i.e. When the hard drive is churning the static is in rhythm with it. So I
know it's something related to either the sound card or how the OS is
dealing with the sound card. I've done some Googling and it appears to be
pretty common, but I can't find a solution that works for me. Unless maybe
I need to put in a standalone sound card.
