I hope crosspost is okay here.

Hi there, linux noob here. I have managed to install Mint 22, dual boot with win11. Everything seems to be working great, except one small problem that keeps me from using mint.
Whenever my computer is not playing a sound, after about 6 seconds, my external speakers will start playing static until a noise is played (a song or even just pressing vol +/-).
I've searched around a bit, but haven't found anything to fix it so far. I've looked on Mint forums (and asked questions but probably did it wrong cuz nobody responded). I used GPT a bit and I think that might have been a mistake. I timeshifted back to revert any changes cuz it's scary.
I ended up getting the powersave mode to turn off in PulseAudio, but that didn't fix it either.
Any suggestions or ideas would be tremendously appreciated. I kinda just gave up for a bit and am back on windows, which is quite unfortunate, I'm sure you'll agree.
I'm on a Nitro AN515-58, let me know if any more info would be helpful.

A five-colored phoenix
lives in a paulownia, eating bamboo nuts.
It moves slowly with decorum,
there’s a peaceful tone in its song.
Why did it come out yesterday?
Perhaps, to spend some time with me.
When it hears my harp and singing,
it dances, rejoicing in the day!

Young women play at dusk
as the breeze fills the road with fragrance.
With golden butterflies sewn on their skirts,
jeweled duck hairpins adorn them.
Even their maids wear fine red silk,
and their eunuchs dress in purple brocade.
But look! Those who lose the way
become frightened when their hair turns white.

A cuckoo atop a flower
chirps in a lovely voice.
A beautiful woman whose face is like a jewel
looks toward it and strums her harp.
Playing like this is not enough.
We long for love when we are young,
but flowers and birds both fly away.
I shed tears facing the autumn wind.

Last spring, when birds were warbling,
I thought of my brothers, young and old.
Now, in autumn, as chrysanthemums decline,
I think of my own birth.
Deep green rivers make me weep,
the dust of battles covers the land.
What a pity! Within a hundred years
the capital city of Xian was destroyed.

Raising girls brings up many fears.
Those already born should be trained well.
Push at their heads to make them attentive,
whip their backs to keep their mouths shut.
If they can’t operate a shuttle and loom,
how can they use brooms and dustpans?
Old woman Zhang tells her donkey foal,
“When you grow up, don’t be like your mother.”

Wandering, I arrive at Above the Sky Pavilion,
where I climb the hundred-foot tower in vain.
Even if we nurture life, our lives are short,
how will making myself study turn me into a lord?
It’s useless to follow the advice of immature people.
Why should I be ashamed of my white hair?
Not yet as straight as an arrow,
I won’t be bent like a hook.

In the village where I live,
people flatter me as incomparable.
Yesterday, I went to the city
and was glared at by dogs.
People either hated my narrow pants
or said my jacket was too long.
While the sparrow hawk’s eyes are crossed,
sparrows dance with confidence.
