Hold on...
Could this by why I hear a really loud buzzing sound when I connect my laptop to a thunderbolt docking station?
The sound only happens for a fraction of a second, and doesn't happen every time; but now that you mention it, it does have the acoustic properties of a warning buzzer!
All components genuine AFAIK and supplied by the same vendor, Toshiba/Dynabook; but I wonder if a failing component somewhere causes a bad state that some component detects, triggering this warning sound...
- Ellipsis753 3y agoI doubt it. My guess is that you have speakers/headphones connected to your dock and they're picking up some kind of transients when you plug it in. Capacitors charging can also have some sound, but it's usually quite high pitched. If you're docking station has an external power source, you might find that adding/removing/changing it helps. Or connecting speakers/headphones via a usb DAC.
