I have a PC with a standard 3.5mm audio jack in the back. I purchased two Bose Soundlink Color II speakers that have 3.5mm connections and happened to have a splitter in my 'cable junk box' so yay, I now have both speakers attached to my PC. That works great when my PC is up and running, but there's a problem. When I shut down my PC, one of the speakers will randomly emit a very loud buzzing noise. The only fix I have found so far is to disconnect the speaker from the PC at either the speaker itself or by unplugging the cable going into my PC. I was curious what would happen if I unplugged the cable from the back of my PC and then shut down, and sure enough, it remained quiet. Unfortunately, I tend to forget about this and shut down my PC and walk out of the room sometimes, and when I come back around, sure enough I hear the buzzing.
So here's my question. Is there something I can attach to the cable at the PC end, or is there something else I can do when I shut down the PC that will somehow sever the connection to the speakers and somehow prevent this? I hope this makes sense, and I apologize for not knowing that much about audio stuff.
Thanks very much for any assistance you can provide!
