    Just a few minutes ago I tried to attach the audio jack of a stereo system into one of the headphone ports of my SXPS 16 and my audio mixer/volume panel went unresponsive, and later the IDT control panel went unresponsive. After restarting my computer, I now find my sound is permanently a kind of whooshing sound everytime I test settings or change volume/system sounds. It is something akin to the static on a tv for a down channel. I have had no experience with this before. Does anyone have any ideas?
