Another possible cause...  If you have the 100W PA option, you MIGHT be
hearing ferrite beads rattling inside the PA module.  I don't know why
they are loose on the wires, but they are and you can hear them rattle
when you shake the module prior to install.
The Assembly Manual references them and says the rattling is "normal".

IF they are the source of your buzzing, the module will need to be
disassembled and the ferrite beads fixed in some fashion so they don't
move and/or make contact with metal enclosure, shield, et al.
