Like 'truckfighters' and 'SoftWireEngineer', I too once recently had a
problem with my SB3 that was fixed by unplugging/replugging the power
source. 

When turning on the stereo system, a low-level but mid-to-high tone
whining sound was coming through the speakers. I didn't know at first
what component it was coming from, and at that time I was using the
analog-outs of the SB3. During my troubleshooting steps, I noticed that
when I unplugged the network cable from the SB3, the sound stopped after
about 5-10 seconds (as the SB3 ultimately reacted to losing the network
connection). Since the sound did persist for that 5-10 second period
after unplugging the network cable, and since no other cable but the
power was connected to the SB3 at the time, the sound was clearly
coming from the SB3 itself and through its analog-outs. 

Finally, unplugging/replugging the power connection at the SB3 got rid
of the whine sound - and fortunately it hasn't returned (although I am
running digital-out to a DAC now, so even if the issue did occur again,
it might not be as noticeable again).
