Okay - first question is "Does it happen in linux and windows? or just one OS ?" If its both, then the problem is hardware... try moving the speakers away from the monitor or any power supplies/transformers. Wall warts are bad for that. If its one OS but not the other, then its probably volumes being set strangely... try xaumix in linux or double click the yellow speaker in the windows system tray. Try muting the line-in channels and microphone channels. Since your subject says "modem" it could be that the linux modem driver uses your speakers to let you know how the connection is going, whereas windows hides those details from you. See how you go.
