Assuming it is a monitor with integrated speakers & amp, it sounds like a
possible failure in the audio amp within the monitor - turning up the volume
is
overloading the power supply. Also could be you're driving too much into the
"audio in" on the monitor - should use "line out" from the card, not the
speaker
out.
What happens if you run regular speakers directly from the audio card?
