In an effort to try to isolate the noise source, I would first go to the
Master Volume panel and mute all except Master Volume and WAV .
If the static persists,install an inexpensive sound card after disabling
the on board sound. If that cures the problem, RMA the board.
All this assumes that any cables associated with the sound system are
properly grounded.
