Computer Plays Audio on it's Own

On a Dell Dimension running XP Pro SP2, the computer will occasionally start playing audio on it’s own. Sometimes it is music, sometimes it sounds like audio from a movie. When this happens there is no indication of any programs running that I can see. This sometimes happens when I have IE open and sometimes not. I have a broadband connection, with a router and hardware firewall and also have windows firewall enabled. I use Symantec antivirus corporate, and I have ran TrendMicro housecall, which found a few instances of malware, but the problem continues.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks.
