exactly! That is what is causing the issues. From what I can see, it
is like it was explained before. The OS has chosen to play nice and
request that the speakers are disabled.
The power requirements will not affect the system until the speakers
are producing sound. In other words, the system will only draw UP to
the power input rating while in operation. At idle, I'd wager they may
only use 1/10 of its power rating for the idle ICs and a power LED.
Just to add:
When you plug in a USB device, it is a "low power" device (single unit
load, 100 mA) by default.
If that device wants to draw more power, it has to request high power (5
unit loads) from the hub. The hub can provide that power, or shut down
the port.
Only it's not the speakers that have their operation interrupted, JUST
the keyboard (not even the mouse is affected).
Guesses:
Total power budget (but FIFO?).
Speaker/keyboard USB ports are on the same internal hub.
High-power OLED keyboard (my eyes!).
Speakers labelled 500 mA but really only a low-power USB device.
