Dell PC GX330 continuously plays USB connect disconnect tone

We have new Dell Optiples GX330s and when hooked up in our class rooms, it makes a tone as if USB is being connected and disconnected continuously.  It seems to be possibly connected to the VGA and a vga splitter box.  We have the computers hooked up to a SMARTBoard and LCD projector as well as a local monitor thats why we need the VGA splitter box.  Has anyone run into this issue??  It is driving me nuts.  I am waiting to get a different brand of VGA splitter box to see if that is the problem.  If I bring the pc into my server room and put it on my KVM I do not get the same problem.

I figured out the problem.  The Dell Optiplex GX330 has a compatibility problem with Startac VGA splitter boxes. I put a different brand on the pcs that had the issue and voila the issue has not reappeared....  VERY interesting problem,,,  DEFINITELY file this one in the KB!!!
