I'm not sure what you mean by standby. There are I think 3 states a
squeezebox can be in: on, off, idle. The last means on but not playing
any music.

Whether the display dims, and what the display shows, in any of these
states, is a setting of the individual player, which you can set at any
time.

Whether "off" state has more meaning, i.e. actually turns off any audio
circuitry, I don't know. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable can chime in
and add something.

I don't run iTunes, so I don't know how this feature is accessed,
whether it's integrated or a separate tool, but some people who used
the iTunes replay gain feature to adjust the volume of their tunes
reported having this white noise problem. And "undo"ing it (again, I
don't know how) reversed the problem.

The white noise problem appears to be a hardware glitch where 2 chips
within the Squeezebox are set up with different parameters that don't
mesh and don't make sense together. The result is noise. Why this
should happen when the player wasn't playing anything is beyond my
understanding of the problem, but it has been reported before.

The meta-problem with this problem, if you will, is that it is quite
rare. It is relatively hard to debug because (a) of it's rarity and (b)
most people experience the noise as being so loud they are not motivated
to debug it, just turn it off before it damages their speakers or their
ears.
