Hi - what does the disturbance sound like? This might be hard to describe on here, but it could help us answer. For example, is it a high pitched whistling noise, like feedback?

It's possible that one of your audio channels is turned up too far. Which sound system are you using? ALSA is a good one to try, and if you are using this you might consider opening Kmix (available from your list of applications) and lowering some of the channel settings.
