Have you tried updating to the latest audio drivers from the Realtek website? I would also try unplugging the front panel audio header and connecting your speakers into the rear audio port. If the problem continues, try with headphones, it's possible there might be an intermittent short within your speakers.

E: Oh, and make sure your speakers and computer are plugged into the same surge protector, and that it is plugged into a grounded outlet. Good surge protectors will have wiring fault indicator lights.

There was an AC97/HD Audio setting in the BIOS most likely, so that wasn't related.
