Computer Speakers Won't Stay Turned Off/ Speakers Turn Themselves On

Hi techsupport,

In the past few months, my speakers have started turning themselves on every few minutes after they've been turned off. This happens even when my computer itself is turned off, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to fix it.

I'm running a Windows 11 computer and my speakers are Redragon Anvil. My computer is custom-built, and I can check the exact component specs to share if they seem relevant.

When I turn off the speakers, they stay off for about 5 minutes and then turn back on. This happens even after shutting down my computer, but not if the computer is unplugged from power or if the speakers' USB is unplugged from the computer.

Any help would be much appreciated!

EDIT: u/lil_nebula suggested I try plugging the speakers into a wall USB adapter (phone charger) and that made it clear the speakers themselves are the problem. Thanks to all who suggested things to try!
