Absolutely sure. The crackle-crackle is coming directly from the speakers when it happens.
I'll see about picking up a new pair of speakers and see if they help.
(I'm a nasty, paranoid soul when it comes to electricity and things suddenly changing. If I'd just changed things, moved things around, rewired things, added components, installed new sound drivers, etc. and suddenly I heard this, I'd have a reason to expect it. But when the computer and relevant wiring haven't been moved in months, the environment around them is the same as it has been for years and suddenly this is starting up, that says "something in hardware is failing" to me.)
