I've ended up muting, or turning my sound down to super low levels. It had been working until today when I tried to play something, but now it's also impacting my speakers and I really kind of need to be able to hear.

Hello, 

I have been experiencing an annoying audio crackle / static sound since I built my new computer.  This sound happens randomly when playing audio via web browser and also for in game audio.  This sound can be reproduced by sliding the volume control on youtube videos back and forth and also every time I shutdown or restart my computer it will make a quick static sound right before it shuts down.  

Things I have tried:  

1. installed / uninstalled manufacturer suggested Realtek audio drivers.  
2. disabled all audio enhancements
3. changed between audio bit rates / hz properties 
4. enabled / disabled application to take exclusive control of audio 
5. updated to latest bios 
6. set Ram speed back to auto 
7. disassembled and reassembled my PC to check motherboard standoffs and screws
8. blew dust out of audio jack
9. plugged headphones into front and rear audio jacks 
10. tested with second pair of headphones

Any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be much appreciated because the static sound is driving me insane.
