Loud sound thump on power up and down

I have just got my Ivy Bridge up and running again but am faced with another small problem and that is I get the loudest thump / whack through the sound system on power up and down.

Now it doesn't matter whether I have the sound turned down to zero the sound is still there especially on power down. I havn't tried unplugging the sound system but am assuming it is only coming through it anyway.


Sound is through an Asus Xonar DG card and I am not wanting this thumping to go on much longer in case it produces surges that might damage the rest of the board set ups.

You are not having much luck lately are you John

How about trying with the speakers/sound system connected to the onboard sound instead of the Xonar. If the problem goes away then you know it's some kind of issue with the Xonar.

Ok Paul I whip out the Xonar and try that maybe the Xonar has eaten the biscuit and I will have to replace it. :)

Well have found a solution if it is a solution that is to have the Logitec turned down to 25% or less and use the volume control on the Xonar / keyboard at least it is not trying to turn the speakers inside out.
