Hello, I'm not really sure whether this is a software problem or a hardware problem. My speakers are connected to my PC with a 3.5 to 3.5 jack. Lately I've been having this problem where whenever I start my PC, the sound from the speakers is kind of scuffed like in the video. But for some reason, it always fixes it if I just pull the jack out of my PC and put it back in and then the sound is fine until I turn the PC off and then the cycle restarts? The sound is fine if I'm using headphones or even my monitor, it's only the speakers, and it's just such a nuisance to have to remember to pull the jack out and replug it after every boot. The sound when I start my PC and it is weird - View: https://youtube.com/shorts/Os4bAcSNAxE?feature=share The sound turning normal after I unplug the 3.5m in my PC and replug it instantly - View: https://youtube.com/shorts/n4mcHOdlbLw?feature=share The other video shows the sound back to normal

Hey, thanks for getting back to me, but it looks like this came from a computer that didn't read my info properly.

I heard a buzzing noise on my speakers, and it was caused by me moving my PC to clean dust. It feels weird how small an air hole can make everything stop working perfectly. PayMyDoctor...... what is this? out of curiosity I tried to check the website but my antivirus said it was dangerous and wouldn't let the page open.

I had the same trouble you mentioned but there were two problems with me. First, the plug or socket was bad. I bought "Deoxit Gold," a liquid, and poured it on the socket. The other issue was on the volume knob of my main speakers. I turned the knob off and on many times and that fixed it. But finally, I took the speaker apart and rewired the potentiometer so everything is loud again. Now there are no more problems. I hope this helps you!
