Turned on my speakers only to hear a sound that wouldn't stop. It's the sound, or similar to the sound, that indicates I've turned on a device. Restart doesn't stop it. Never had this problem before. What happened, and how do I correct this problem?

Figured it out--I think. I hope. I had just updated my Dropbox installation. Seems like the sound was telling me that the Initio default controller driver was out of date, so I updated it. The sound seems to have been a combination of the device disconnect and device failed to connect warnings. It is now gone.
