I'm not sure where to begin... I've observed this for some time when I shift my position from my desk and stand up. My subwoofer would produce a sudden popping noise, which intrigued me but I ignored it. Now, whenever it happens, either one or both of my monitors go black or display the "HDR" logo on the active screen. I checked for loose wires or connections, but found nothing. I tried moving everything slightly to see if it would help, but nothing replicated the problem. The popping occurs only when I push back from the desk (without touching it) and stand up, not when I sit and wait. Even after pushing back more than 5 feet, it still happens. This is puzzling—I'm either missing a loose wire or short circuit, or my static electricity might be interfering with the electronics. Do you know anyone who has experienced this? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

I connected a ground wire close to my chair and touched it while getting up to reduce this static issue.
