    G'day guys,

    I got 2 UX31E's sitting next to me with both the same, really annoying problem. My laptops buzz really loudly when ever they are playing back human speech over the speakers.

    The problem doesn't appear to be the speakers themselves, I appears to be the entire chassis vibrating at the same frequency when ppl talk which is causing the buzz.

    On my laptop is seems to do it in the top right hand corner, on my dads laptop in the bottom left (not as badly). You guys got any fixes for this? You think putting something like plumbers tape on the screws or something might fix this?

    Given the frequency range that this happens it, I can't stand it since 90% of things i listen to has human speech in it >_<

    Edit, It appears to be the keyboard thats buzzing, if I hold it down with my hands it stops buzzing.
